Petrophysical Core Samples may be associated with oil and gas exploration and production, storage, hazardous waste disposal, or remediation, or other specific endeavors. Core analysis provided by Intertek includes routine core analysis and special core analysis.
Cores evaluated come lithologies such as sandstones, uncemented sediments, carbonates, shales, and coal. They may taken in either a vertical or horizontal orientation with respect to the surface.
Intertek Core Testing Services include:
Routine core analysis is the determination of generally, non-dynamic petrophysical properties that may be performed in a well completion time frame depending on the type and volume of analysis. This time frame may be from 24 hours to several weeks, depending on the amount of material to be analyzed, the type of analysis, and the permeability of the material. The Intertek Westport Technology Center in Houston performs a wide range of Core Analysis, working with clients and samples on a global basis. Westport provides basic routine core analysis, as well as other more specialized analyses useful in the determination of reservoir properties.
