Abstract
Petroleum well cores examinations are among the most costly stages of development of oil and gas. And even a partial its replacement by the numerical experiments can provide significant economic benefits. 3D-reconstruction of the core microstructure can be considered as a cheap and least timeconsuming method for obtaining petrophysical information about the main filtration-capacitive properties and fluid motion in reservoir rocks. One of the promising approaches to build the mathematical model of the macroscopic properties of porous media and for the 3D-reconstruction of the rock microstructure is the method of molecular dynamics. This work presents the results of numerical calculations and their comparison with the full-scale examination.
