Applications
Learning
Benchtop NMR analyses key properties of rocks, reservoirs and fluids. NMR measures the total oil and water volume, oil and water content, porosity, permeability, capillary pressure, wettability, and fluid saturation. Characterising rock cores at high pressures and under core flooding conditions, our GeoSpec instruments advance Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) and the characterisation of carbon dioxide sequestration for the carbon capture and storage (CCS). The GeoSpec is designed to mimic the operation of the NMR logging tools in the lab with high pressure cells that can operate at temperatures to 100 C.
GeoSpec is the industry standard benchtop NMR rock core analyser, with installations in almost every major oil producer and SCAL laboratory world-wide for core handle samples from ½ to 2 inches diameter. Integrated Green Imaging Technologies (GIT) LithoMetrix software, and comprehensive accessories support all use from routine rock core analysis to advanced petrophysics research without the need for an NMR expert.
The GeoSpec Core Analyser 2 MHz models routinely measure relaxation distributions, allowing the prediction of basic petrophysical parameters such as porosity, free and bound fluid determinations from T₂ values. Higher field (12 and 23 MHz) models address high sensitivity applications including very low porosity samples, and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) that exploit 3D gradients.
