High-resolution X-ray computed tomography (micro-CT) has been widely used as a non-destructive technique, allowing 3D imaging and analysis of internal features of various objects.
The routine measurement of direction-dependent reservoir rock properties like permeability often takes place along the axial direction of core samples. As permeability is a tensor property of ...
An image-based approach was developed by combining microtomography with electron microscopy and contact angle goniometry to determine the pore-scale distribution of crude oil in plugs after w ...
From the very early days of hydrocarbon exploration and production, cylindrical rock samples known as cores have been used as identifying reservoir samples for determining important physical ...
Analysing rock micro-structure from micro-computed tomographic images of porous media is vital to understand fluid-flow and estimating petrophysical properties like permeability.
X-ray micro-CT imaging is becoming more prevalent in characterizing rock samples at pore- and grain- scale. By analyzing micro-CT data, one can gain an understanding about the micro-scale fea ...
