Abstract:
The continuous porosity possessed by limestone reservoirs is developed mainly by solution by acids resulting from the bacterial decomposition of organic matter and by carbon dioxide formed during these processes.
Porosity is shown to be of three types, namely, equi-solution, channel, and cellular. In the development of these types of porosity, the composition of the rock and arrangement of mineral grains is important.
Reactions taking place within the reservoir, both prior and subsequent to the entrance of oil, may result in the formation of much secondary calcite. The effect of this material upon the results of acid treatment and also that of the insoluble residues released are touched upon briefly.
