We have evaluated several published models using induced polarization (IP) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements for the estimation of permeability of hydrocarbon reservoir samples. IP and NMR measurements were made on 30 samples (clean sands and sandstones) from a Persian Gulf hydrocarbon reservoir. We assessed the applicability of a mechanistic IP-permeability model and an empirical IP-permeability model recently proposed. The mechanistic model results in a broader range of permeability estimates than those measured for sand samples, whereas the empirical model tends to overestimate the permeability of the samples that we tested. We also evaluated an NMR permeability prediction model that is based on porosity [Formula: see text] and the mean of the log transverse relaxation time ([Formula: see text]). This model provides reasonable permeability estimations for the clean sandstones that we tested but relies on calibrated parameters. We also examined an IP-NMR permeability model, which is based on the peak of the transverse relaxation time distribution, [Formula: see text] and the formation factor. This model consistently underestimates the permeability of the samples tested. We also evaluated a new model. This model estimates the permeability using the arithmetic mean of log transverse NMR relaxation time ([Formula: see text]) and diffusion coefficient of the pore fluid. Using this model, we improved estimates of permeability for sandstones and sand samples. This permeability model may offer a practical solution for geophysically derived estimates of permeability in the field, although testing on a larger database of clean granular materials is needed.

The quality of a reservoir can be described in details by the application of transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance fractal dimension. The objective of this research is to calculate fractal dimension from the relationship among transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance, maximum transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance and wetting phase saturation and to confirm it by the fractal dimension derived from the relationship among capillary pressure and wetting phase saturation. In this research, porosity was measured on real collected sandstone samples and permeability was calculated theoretically from capillary pressure profile measured by mercury intrusion techniques. Two equations for calculating the fractal dimensions have been employed. The first one describes the functional relationship between wetting phase saturation, transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance, maximum transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance and fractal dimension. The second equation implies to the wetting phase saturation as a function of capillary pressure and the fractal dimension. Two procedures for obtaining the fractal dimension have been developed. The first procedure was done by plotting the logarithm of the ratio between transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance and maximum transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance versus logarithm wetting phase saturation. The slope of the first procedure = 3-Df (fractal dimension). The second procedure for obtaining the fractal dimension was completed by plotting logarithm of capillary pressure versus the logarithm of wetting phase saturation. The slope of the second procedure = Df -3. The results show similarities between transverse relaxation time of nuclear magnetic resonance and capillary pressure fractal dimension.
