Digital Rock Physics Provides New Insight into Shale Reservoir Quality - Hart's E&P, August 2011
Advanced imaging, rigorous physics, and high-speed computation combine to reveal reservoir properties of organic-rich shales.
Revolutionizing Core Analysis
Houston-based Ingrain uses latest-generation 3D CT (computed tomography) to quickly and accurately determine absolute and relative permeability, resistivity, elastic properties, pore and grain statistics. Results are available in days, they claim, even in ultra-low permeability sandstones, complex carbonates and shales. ...
Computing Properties from 3-D Imaging (Hart's E&P, November 2008)
Next-generation computed tomography(CT) scanning reveals the actual pore structure of shale reservoirs at the nanometer scale, and breakthrough algorithms compute the physical properties of shale from these 3-D images all with unprecedented accuracy Please see attached document.
