In subsurface evaluation, the story isn’t just about the rock itself — it’s about the holes within it. Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP)...
For decades, core analysis has been a critical tool for understanding reservoir properties. But when it comes to unconventional, low-permeability reservoirs, standard laboratory...
When it comes to understanding the reservoir, accurate measurements of porosity and permeability are critical. Traditional laboratory methods, while valuable, often fall short...
CoreSpec is pleased to announce that Dr. Christopher R. Clarkson, a renowned expert in unconventional reservoir engineering, through his company TecTOC Energy Ltd.,...
Over the past decade interest in shale properties has increased due to the commercial success of gas shale plays. Despite their commercial importance,...
We measured Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP) profiles on tight shale samples with a variety of sample sizes. The goal was to optimize the...
Dean-Stark water saturation data can provide an indication of the appropriate Archie parameters to use in early log analysis prior to obtaining centrifuge...
The nature of component layers of mixed-layer illite-smectite and their possible evolution in the course of illitization have been debated since the 1960s....
Layer charge (LC) is a fundamental property of smectite but its measurement remains challenging and tedious to apply on a high-throughput basis. The...
