Abstract
Low permeability materials have pores too tight to be characterized using conventional methods.
So, the creation of a 3D pore-scale models of a porous media is often an essential step in quanti-
tatively characterizing those materials and predicting their transport properties. In this work, we
study a stack of 180 parallel FIB-SEM slices (1095x1096 pixels) of a synthetic clay of nanometric
porosity. We propose a method to reconstruct a coherent 3D configuration of its porous structure
from 2D sections with different sampling spaces. This method is based on a multiple-point statistic
algorithm (MPS). It uses a stochastic sequential simulation of 2D slices to allow a computationally
efficient reconstruction (CPU time) of a medium of high dimensions (1095x1096x180). The results
of several simulations are analyzed to evaluate the ability of the method to capture the porous
connectivity of the material.
