Rock typing is an important tool in evaluation and performance prediction of reservoirs. Different techniques such as flow zone indicator (FZI), FZI* and Winland methods are used to categorize reservoir rocks into distinct rock types. Generally, these methods are applied to petrophysical data that are measured at a pressure other than reservoir pressure. Since the pressure changes the pore structure of rock, the effect of overburden pressure on rock typing should be considered. In this study, porosity and permeability of 113 core samples were measured at five different pressures. To investigate the effect of pressure on determination of rock types, FZI, FZI* and Winland methods were applied. Results indicated that although most of the samples remain in the same rock type when pressure changes, some of them show different trends. These are related to the mineralogy and changes in pore system of the samples due to pressure change. Additionally, the number of rock types increases with increasing pressure. Furthermore, the effect of overburden pressure on determination of rock types is more clearly observed in the Winland and FZI* methods. Also, results revealed that a more precise reservoir dynamic simulation can be obtained by considering the reservoir rock typing process at reservoir conditions.
