Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for providing a numerical model of a sample of rock that, when used for flow simulations, it reproduces the porosity and the permeability according to the measurements taken in said sample of the rock. The method is characterized in that the structure and the properties of the numerical model are populated randomly ensuring that the global behavior reproduces the measurements.
