    Routine Core Analysis

    Uploaded by

    Jombaca Berubah
    Routine core analysis is the set of standard measurements performed on core plugs or whole cores to understand the pore system and properties of potential reservoir rocks. These analyses include measuring porosity, bulk volume, gas and liquid permeability, relative permeability, electrical properties, capillary pressure, initial fluid saturation, core photography, natural radioactivity, and collecting rock samples. Cores provide essential data to predict reservoir performance and maximize hydrocarbon recovery.

    ROUTINE CORE ANALYSIS

    Definition: The set of measurements normally carried out on core plugs or whole core.

    Routine core analysis is distinct from special core analysis (SCAL). Recommended practices for routine core analysis
    are available in the API document RP40.

    Cores are essential to understanding the nature of the pore system in the potential reservoir unit. The
    knowledge gained from cores enhances our ability to predict reservoir performance and to select procedures to
    maximize profitable hydrocarbon recovery.
