Wettability contact angle & area are studied and modeled by 2D image technologies obtaining the python algorithm. The investigated approach by using 2D image capturing and image analyses that are applied for EOR mathematically. as well as wetting contact angle and area trends in the rock sample. And then, generate all possible pore contact angles. In this study, the oil recovery prediction model is also developed by constructing a mathematical model based on statistical grouping and averaging for all measured pore-walls available in the rock sample. Pore parameters such as pore-area, pore-count, and pore wall, and pore shape distribution are all captured and measured experimentally, and data can be accurately generated.
