ABSTRACT
fractured
reservoirs. The orientations and
lengths of the surface linear features were calculated using the digitized coordinates of
the two end points of each individual linear feature. The spacing data of the surface
linear features within an individual set were obtained using a new analytical sampling
technique that involves overlapping a set of uniform imaginary scanlines orthogonally on
top of an individual fracture set and calculating the distance between two adjacent
intersection points along each scanline. Statistical analyses were then performed to find
the best-fit probability distribution functions for the orientation, length, and spacing
of each data set. Twenty-five hypothesized probability distribution functions were used to
fit each data set. A chi-square goodness-of-fit value was considered the best-fit
distribution.
