INTERPRETATION OF MERCURY INJECTION EXPERIMENTS USING A MINIMUM SET OF POROUS DESCRIPTORS DERIVED BY QUANTITATIVE IMAGE ANALYSIS

The porosity exposed in a series of petrographic thin sections from a sub-arkosic sandstone reservoir of the Alwyn area (North Sea) is described by 5 morphological porous descriptors, Pore-Types, obtained by quantitative image analysis procedures and pattern recognition algorithms developed by Ehrli...
