Deriving field-based statistical relationships to characterize the geometry, heterogeneity and permeability of faults in mixed sand-shale sequences : a new tool for upscaling flow properties

Fault zones can strongly affect fluid flow in the subsurface. Faults can act as (partial) barriers to flow, as conduits and as combined conduit-barrier systems. Understanding the relationship between faulting and fluid flow has many practical applications, including hydrocarbon exploration and produ...
