Abstract
Petrophysical rock types (PRTs) can be defined as objects in the three dimensional space defined by Thomeer pore system parameters. Classifications in the Thomeer parameter space must also be accompanied by relationships to convenient well bore measurements (commonly well logs) and geologic parameters to create economic value in the petroleum business. Recent and detailed core-and-log-based high-frequency, sequence-stratigraphic characterization of the Khuff-C by Eid, Dukhayyil and Tawil are now complete and this work builds on that important geological foundation. Hence, any effort to define petrophysical rock types must include and utilize a host of multidisciplinary data.
