Simple question, but I'm getting two different answers from Petrel users in my office:
I've generated a non-linear PORE-PERM function to use to distribute permeability. The equation provided is as follows:
log(y) = -3.82401 + 44.0022 * pow(x,1) - 87.2269 * pow(x,2)
where
y = permeability
x = porosity
Can I simply use the equation as shown directly to calculate Ppermeability or do I need to solve the equation for y? i.e. solve log(y) where y is PERM. If the answer is yes, can someone please help me!
Thankyou!
