Lattice Boltzmann Simulations of Fluid Flow in Continental Carbonate Reservoir Rocks and in Upscaled Rock Models Generated with Multiple-Point Geostatistics

<div>Computer-generated models of a reed facies sample with different <i>σ</i> values, which controls the level of conditioning data used. (a) No conditioning data; (b) <i>σ</i> = 0.75; (c) <i>σ</i> = 0.50; and (d) the largest amount of conditioning data with <i>σ</i> = 0.25 (colors indicate connectivity). The more the conditioning data approaches the “truth,” the more the simulated permeability approaches the laboratory measured permeability.</div>
