Abstract

The new approach called the bulk gas-magnetic resonance permeability (BGMRK) is used in evaluating the neutron magnetic resonance (NMR) logs. It can also be used to determine permeability in tight gas reservoirs. Depends on gas reentry to the flushed zone, the new approach has the same value in oil-based (OBM) and water-based (WBM) muds. The BGMRK provides a simple facies independent model in calculating permeability. This approach has been used for a gas-condensate field producing from a Lower-Mesozoic reservoir.
