SPE IOR 2026 - Short Course - Reservoir Heterogeneity and Characterization

This course teaches field-scale reservoir characterization to evaluate heterogeneity and well-towell communication. Class discussion includes single- and multiphase properties, standard measures of heterogeneity, such as the Dykstra-Parson coefficient, as well as newer methods to analyze inter-well communication. We include examples with geological and seismic information to better understand which heterogeneities affect fluid flow and control injector-producer interactions.

Topics • Statistical behavior of reservoir properties • Heterogeneity measures • Flow-storage (Lorenz) curves • Koval’s method of water flood prediction • Permeability and percolation • Flow rate analysis to predict injector-producer communication
