Digitalcore is the leading provider of 3D high-resolution x-ray images of core samples, image-based core analysis and interpretation services to the oil and gas industry.
Digitalcore’s services range from standard petrophysical analysis, porosity, permeability, elastic properties, NMR response and mineralogy through to capillary pressure, relative permeabilities, electrical resistivity, wettability and IOR studies.
These services are ideally suited to the analysis of sidewall cores, core fragments, unconsolidated and friable cores, cuttings and other core material unsuitable for conventional core analysis: tar sands, tight gas, shale gas and coal.
The benefits of digital core analysis include:
|
TIME
Fast turnaround means more efficient operations - porosity/permeability and relative permeabilities in weeks
|
COST EFFECTIVE
Revolutionise the mode of gathering core data with a major reduction in cost
|
CORE MATERIAL
Analyse core material unsuitable for conventional analysis – sidewall cores, drill cuttings and unconsolidated and friable cores
|
UNCONVENTIONALS
Analyse unconventional formations including: complex carbonates, tar sands, tight gas, shale gas and coal
|
|
ENHANCED UNDERSTANDING
Identification of pore-scale mechanisms and the ability to map wettability and fluids in 3D
|
DATA
Increase the volume and value of conventional core and special core analysis data and resolve uncertainties in existing data sets
|
CO2 SEQUESTRATION
Characterise CO2 storage resovoir rocks and seal integrity in 3D
|
CORE LIBRARY
Preserve the form of original cores forever
