Abstract: The logarithmic graph and the cumulative probability diagram for pore-throat radius vs mercury injection saturation are presented, in which the straight-line portion similar with the suspending line portion on cumulative grain-size probability curve means the difficult-to-flow and stagnation pore domains in reservoirs, from which the typical cut-off pore-throat radius is read directly and verified by the conventional pore-throat radius method and the modern nuclear magnetic resonance technique. In addition, the combination of capillary pressure curve and spectrum t2 of nuclear magnetic resonance can help to directly determine the cut-off oil-bearing pore-throat radius.

Key words: capillary pressure curve, probability, nuclear magnetic resonance, pore-throat radius, limitation, cut-off value
