Abstract

The paper describes mathematical and statistical research methods based on the comprehensive analysis of field data as well as the value of such methods for characterization of flow connectivity. The definitions of rank correlation and correlation coefficient are presented, Spearman’s and Kendall’s rank correlation methods, application and computational algorithms are considered in more detail. An example of calculating Spearman’s and Kendall’s rank correlations for real field wells is provided.

Key words:

high-viscosity oil, well production testing, waterflood system, connectivity, natural fracture network, carbonate reservoir, Spearman's rank correlation, Kendall’s rank correlation
