Abstract:A rock-physics-based evaluation of elastic properties is examined in a coal core, using a three-dimensional (3D) reservoir simulator with an embedded petro-elastic model (PEM) to facilitate the evaluation of fracture productivity mechanisms. The analysis expedites what-if scenario evaluation at reduced costs compared to laboratory experimentation. The flow rates and capillary pressure are incorporated into a simulated coreflood to assess the effect of production on elastic properties at the core scale. A simul… Show more
