Abstract

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) operations offer a fundamental challenge in the study of reservoir characterization primarily due to the lack of understanding of inherent complexity in the estimation of reservoir parameters. Rock physics models play a crucial role in solving production problems and reducing the ambiguities of fluids within reservoir.
