“…Побудова залежностей між вертикальною і горизонтальною проникністю не завжди дає бажаний результат (рис.1). У дослідженій колекції коефіцієнт кореляції для даної залежності -не стійкий (R 2 = 0,46), але, використавши коефіцієнт ефективної пористості, авторам вдалося [5] побудувати тісну кореляційну залежність (R 2 = 0,87) між вертикальною проникністю та середнім гідравлічним радіусом порід (рис. 2).…”

The paper focuses on the filtration and electrical anisotropy coefficients and relationship between vertical and horizontal permeability in sandstone reservoir rocks. Field case study of DDB reservoir rocks. Petrophysical properties and parameters are estimated from core and log data from a Moscovian and Serpukhovian stages of Dnipro-Donetsk Basin (West-Shebelynka area well 701-Bis and South-Kolomak area well 31). Routine core analysis included estimation of absolute permeability, open porosity, irreducible water saturation and electrical resistivity (on dry and saturated by mineralized solution) of 40 core samples along two orthogonal directions. Shale fraction is estimated using well logging data in wells which are analyzed. The authors report that reservoir rocks are represented by compacted poor-porous (φ <10 %), low permeable (k<1mD) laminated sandstone with different ratios of clay minerals (Vsh from 0,03 to 0,7) and high volume of micaceous minerals (in some cases 20-30 %). Research theory. One of the main objectives of the work is to develop empirical correlation between vertical permeability and other capacitive and filtration properties for compacted sandstone reservoirs. A modified Kozeny-Carman equation and the concept of hydraulic average radius form the basis for the technique. Results. Coefficients of the anisotropy of gas permeability (IA) and electrical resistivity (λ) are defined based on the results of petrophysical studies. The experiments proved that IA lies in a range from 0,49 to 5 and λ from 0,77 to 1,06. Permeability and electrical resistivity anisotropy in most cases have horizontal distribution. It has been shown that in West-Shebelynka area sample №1 (depth 4933 m) there is probably no fluids flow in vertical direction and in samples №№3 and 15 fractures have the vertical orientation. We have also found that the values of electrical and filtration anisotropy for all samples of South-Kolomak area are similar, this characterized the unidirectionality in their filtration properties, as well as the fact that the motion of the fluid flow mainly in the horizontal direction. In the studied rocks the degree of anisotropy has been concluded to depend on the volume of clay and micaceous minerals, their stratification, fractures, density, and their orientation. New correlation between vertical permeability, horizontal permeability and effective porosity are developed for Late Carboniferous DDB intervals that are analyzed.
