Permeability calculated from desaturation data

Laliberte, G.E. / Brooks, R.H. / Corey, A.T.

Equation is presented for calculating saturated permeability from capillary pressure-desaturation data; use of this equation along with relative permeability equations of Brooks and Corey is proposed for calculating permeability of both saturated and partially saturated media; analysis leading to development of equation is based on theory developed in petroleum industry; predicted relationships were calculated using capillary pressure-desaturation data in new equation and in relative permeability equations of Brooks and Corey; calculated and experimental values of permeability agreed within 27% over range of capillary pressures studied.
