A New Model to Calculate Three-Phase Relative Permeabilities: Application and Validation for a Sandstone Un nouveau modèle pour le calcul des perméabilités relatives en écoulement triphasique : application et validation dans le cas d'un grès

Three-phase flow in a porous medium is usually described by the Stone model (1970). This model is based on two-phase data and relies on empirical correlations. It is valid only under strong water wettability and recognized as being a poor predictor. The goal of the present study is to develop a math...
