Corey Correlations

To enter relative permeability data, do the following:

1.In the object navigator, select a well.

2.On the Relative permeability tab, from the Relative permeability drop-down list select Corey correlations and enter the following parameters:

Relative permeability at maximum

water saturation (krwMax); gas saturation (krgMax); oil saturation(kroMax);

Residual

water saturation (Swc); gas saturation (Sgc);

Residual oil saturation

in the oil-water system (Sorw); in the gas-oil system (Sorg);

Exponent

at water saturation (expW); at gas saturation (expG);

Oil saturation exponent

in the oil-water system (expOW); in the gas-oil system (expOG).

If relative permeability values are missing, you can set default values and, before running the forecast calculation, match relative permeability for the reservoir.
