Permeability is a key parameter that affects fluids flow in reservoir and its accurate determination is a significant task. Permeability usually is measured using practical approaches such as either core analysis or well test which both are time and cost consuming. For these reasons applying well logging data in order to obtaining petrophysical properties of oil reservoir such as permeability and porosity is common. Most of petrophysical parameters generally have relationship with one of well logged data. But reservoir permeability does not show clear and meaningful correlation with any of logged data. Sonic log, density log, neutron log, resistivity log, photo electric factor log and gamma log, are the logs which effect on permeability. It is clear that all of above logs do not effect on permeability with same degree. Hence determination of which log or logs have more effect on permeability is essential task. In order to obtaining mathematical relationship between permeability and affected log data, fitting statistical nonlinear models on measured geophysical data logs as input data and measured vertical and horizontal permeability data as output, was studied. Results indicate that sonic log, density log, neutron log and resistivity log have most effect on permeability, so nonlinear relationships between these logs and permeability was done.

Polymer retention is one of the most important factors to govern polymer propagation through porous media, determining whether successful or not. The focus of previous studies has been limited to polymer concentration loss caused by the retention; not only change in polymer concentration, but also reduction in reservoir permeability is the main issue for theoretical transport study. Due to the lack of accuracy of Langmuir isotherm describing the polymer retention mechanisms, this study proposes a new type of matching interpretation method to correlate the permeability reduction factors from experiments to permeability. In order to solve the problem of poorly matching results between estimation and observation, use of nonadsorptive constant conditionally selected in matching process was made. Based on the threshold permeability reduction factors, approximate critical permeability can be calculated to which nonadsorptive constant would be applied. Results showed significant improvements in the estimation of permeability reduction for both low and high permeability cores. In addition, effects of permeability reduction on polymer transport in field scale were analyzed using the proposed matching model. Thus, not only does this interpretation method help to evaluate prediction for accurate flow behavior, but also unwanted risk can be evaluated.
