The stand for physical modeling of reservoir conditions

The stand for physical modeling of reservoir conditions is used for simulation of uniform pressure on a sample of reservoir rock.

The cylindrical samples of rocks (30 mm in height, 30 mm in diameter) will be pressure test from 0,1 up to 100 МPа. The samples are under investigation of the pressure dependences of resistance and elastic properties.

The stand for determination of porosity and absolute permeability of the rock samples

The stand is used for determination of porosity with gas-volumetric method (a) and for absolute permeability (b) of the rock samples.

The cylindrical samples of rocks (30 mm in height, 30 mm in diameter) are being saturated with nitrogen and then the pressure difference is determined. Rock porosity determination range is 0,1 – 30%.

Pressure injection test (1 МPа) to assess the absolute permeability of rocks in the range 0,001 – 1000 fm².
