Abstract
D10 THREE-PHASE RELATIVE PERMEABILITIES AND CAPILLARY PRESSURE BY UPSCALING Abstract 1 Three phase flow properties are important for correct modeling and prediction of such IOR processes as WAG and blow-down/depletion after waterflooding. On the core-scale these properties can generally by obtained directly from experiments (though this is not usually done) from pore-scale modeling of threephase flow or from empiric formulae interpolating two sets of two-phase data oil-water and oil-gas which are supposed to have been measured into the three-phase saturation region like the ones proposed by Stone. For the usage in the simulator the core scale properties have to be
