Predicting gas-condensate relative permeability and production performance
Analytical correlations describing relative permeability are extremely useful in the absence of laboratory-measured data, or when a general representation of fluid flow is required. Experimental work led to new correlations to predict gas-water relative permeability data. A new technique consists of quick laboratory measurements to measure endpoint saturations and new correlations to predict gas-water relative permeability honoring rock and fluid properties.
