    Аннотация This study presents a physics-guided workflow for predicting the gas permeability of car-bonate reservoirs directly from low-resolution microtomography (μCT) imagery. Standardcore plugs were scanned at 34.6–36 μm/voxel, and a total of 52,327 grayscale d aggregationagainst experimental plug-scale measurements. The grayscale images and log-transformedpermeability labels were used to train a Swin Transformer model, pre-trained on ImageNet.Two models were developed independently: one using harmonic-mean aggregation and theother using the bottleneck approach. Both models demonstrate stable convergence despitethe highly skewed data distribution. The harmonic-mean model achieved R² = 0.904 on thevalidation set, while the bottleneck model yielded R² = 0.879. Although the higher R² reflectsa closer fit to the overall trend, the bottleneck model, in blind testing on ten independentsamples (0.4–2300 μm² × 10⁻³), reduced the MAE from 165 to 104 μm² × 10⁻³ (−37 %) andthe RMSE from 255 to 140 μm² × 10⁻³ (−45 %) relative to the harmonic-mean model. Themethod provides a fast and interpretable permeability prediction based solely on raw μCTslices, without requiring image segmentation or 3D reconstruction. The proposed approachdemonstrates robust performance across a wide range of standard carbonate plugs and effec-tively captures permeability trends even in the presence of structural heterogeneity. Whilesamples with extremely large fractures or vugs can introduce local inconsistencies in labellingdue to the limitations of slice-based estimation, these cases are rare and can be systematicallyaddressed in future work. Overall, the results highlight the strong potential of physics-guidedmachine learning to accelerate digital core analysis and provide reliable, image-driven per-meability predictions for complex carbonate reservoirs.
