Summary
Integrated 2MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance high temperature tri-axial flow cell apparatus. The development of an integrated facility for petrophysical measurements allows the efficient use of expensive rock cores from gas or liquid reservoirs to develop reliable cross-correlations at conditions encountered in real reservoirs. The equipment is optimised for applications to unconventional reservoirs like Australia’s gas resources, in particular coal-bed methane reservoirs and gas reservoirs where ....Integrated 2MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance high temperature tri-axial flow cell apparatus. The development of an integrated facility for petrophysical measurements allows the efficient use of expensive rock cores from gas or liquid reservoirs to develop reliable cross-correlations at conditions encountered in real reservoirs. The equipment is optimised for applications to unconventional reservoirs like Australia’s gas resources, in particular coal-bed methane reservoirs and gas reservoirs where gas is difficult to extract.Read moreRead less
