Abstract
A method is provided. Cells of a digital model of a formation are classified corresponding with one or more classes based on minerals and/or pore sizes. Wettability of the formation in the digital model is calibrated based on imbibition and/or drainage curves from physical experimentation for a rock sample and the one or more classes of the cells of the digital model.
