摘要:
Disclosed is a method and system for integrating measurements from known laboratory techniques of fluid extraction (Dean Stark, Retort, Rock-Eval), which conducted independently by multiple disciplines and which have been so far treated as independent evaluations. In using these results, particularly Dean Stark and Retort, the oil industry has shown specific preferences between these two methods, with some groups advocating the validity of one method over the other, and others showing the opposite. Forums and discussions have been organized by the technical community to debate the benefits and drawbacks of each of these and to define which is the more suitable for reservoir characterization. Commercial laboratories have specialized in one method or the other based on their perceived validity. Both methods are correct, but each measure an incomplete assessment of the properties needed, and that together they provide considerable more information than when considered independently.
