Two-Scale Geomechanics of Carbonates
Abstract The geomechanical characterization of a carbonate reservoir is required for formation stimulation and hydrocarbon recovery. The pertinent core- or block-scale (large-scale) characterizations are time consuming and expensive, and more importantly, cannot be used for drill cuttings. The present study proposes a two-scale model based on microscale (small-scale) measurements to predict the geomechanical properties of a carbonate formation at the core scale. At the small scale, we develop a physically representative element by accounting for the effective stiffness of a constitutive mineral and of voids. At the large scale, we account for the volume fraction of each mineral, the porosity, and the pore structure of the void space. The elastic deformation of a large-scale model is simulated using a finite element method (FEM), whose results are tested against independent lab measurements. The proposed two-scale model has applications for geomechanical characterization of a formation at the core scale from drill cuttings.
