Petrofacies Analysis—A Petrophysical Tool for Geologic/Engineering Reservoir Characterization

Abstract Petrofacies analysis is defined as the characterization and classification of pore types and fluid saturations as revealed by petrophysical measurements of a reservoir. The word “petrofacies” makes an explicit link between petroleum engineers' concerns with pore characteristics as arbiters...
