9. Create Rock Quality Index property

The Rock Quality Index (RQI) is the parameter defined to characterize the rock quality based on the relation between
permeability and porosity.
To create the property in Petrel,

Open 3D Property Calculator.

Petrel RE 2014 Basic Introduction

Type in RQI formula where RQI = 0.0314 (Permeability/Porosity)^0.5. Attach template as General and click
Enter.

A new property is created under the Model pane.

Reservoir Opportunity Index calculation

In Results pane, Right click on Simulation grid results, and select Calculator.

Type the following expression on the calculator and click Parse expression.

ROI= Pow(Pressure*0.0314*Sqrt(Perm/Poro)*Porv*(Soil-Sor),0.3)

For Variable ROI, Select type as Grid property and Source 3D Grid. In Property column, Create New property and
select template as Region from Discrete property template folders.
