Special core analysis goes beyond baseline properties to measure how fluids actually move through the rock under reservoir stress and temperature.
Multiphase flow, electrical behaviour and compressibility all change with confining pressure, and measuring them at ambient conditions can materially misrepresent the reservoir.
Programmes are built around the decision being made — whether that is calibrating a saturation model, validating an EOR scheme, or characterising an unconventional interval where conventional methods reach their resolution limit.
Our team will help define a testing programme that answers the question without over-specifying the work.
