Abstract
This research discusses the digital core with the purpose for knowing the petrophysics parameter, especially the relative permeability of carbonate rocks. The method used in this research is descriptive analytic. Source of data comes from primary data. The primary data is sample core data (digital data) that has been collected and processed directly by the researcher with the purpose to compare results from digital data to laboratory data. The result from this research indicates there is a relationship between the results from digital data with the results from laboratory data such as porosity, permeability, and trendline of curve from relative permeability. As for the results show the difference in relative permeability value caused by several factors.
