CAG-600
Computer Aided Goniometer
The CAG-600, Computer Aided Goniometer, is an instrument for digitizing and documenting planar or linear
features in core samples such as bedding, fractures
and stylolites. The goniometer consists of the core digitizer, serial interface box and connection cable. Complete software is supplied with the goniometer for data collection and report analysis. The computer can be
supplied by Coretest Systems, or provided by the customer. The digitizer consists of a base plate, two rubber
rollers to place the core on, and several linear and rotary encoders which are used to monitor the position of a
stylus arm. The stylus is placed on the planar feature at several points on the feature and the program automatically calculates the orientation relative to the scribe line. An optional roller support is used to support
longer core samples. If the core sample is from a non-vertical or deviated well the dip and azimuth of the well
can be entered as a function of depth. The program automatically corrects for the deviation on the collected
data. Orientation and description data are stored in the main file called the well file. Data are collected in the
segment level. For each segment the user characterizes the sample depth, orientation of feature, and de-

GCS-765
Gravimetric
Capillary Pressure System
Single Cell
This Gravimetric Capillary Pressure Measurement System offers a precision instrument for the desaturation of core samples by the porous plate method up to 200 psi. The measured data can be utilized to calculate Capillary Pressure versus
Saturation curves and tabular data, Height above free water zone, pore size distribution, and water cut versus height.
The data can also be utilized to aid in the determination of wettability and relative permeability characteristics. A Microsoft Excel computer spreadsheet template is included along with manual data sheets for data collection and calculation.
The 200 psi chambers included with this system can hold up to 20-one inch diameter samples at a time. The maximum
sample height is 6 inches enabling desaturation of full diameter samples as well as plugs.
A precision gravimetric weighing balance is required in order to make sample saturation determinations (Balance available as an option). The system can be configured with from one to five desaturation chambers. Each chamber utilizes a
dedicated rack mounted pressure selection module. Each pressure selection module utilizes 2 digital pressure transducers (0-15, 0-250 psi) with accuracy's of 0.11%. Pressure transducers with 0.05% accuracy are available upon request.
Gas humidifiers are included to insure minimum evaporation during the desaturation process. Multiple precision pressure

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
ASPE-730
Automated System for
Pore Examination
The ASPE-730 Automated System for Pore Examination performs constant rate mercury injection defining pore structure
at injection pressures to either 100 or 1,000 psia. A number of years ago Yuan and Swanson (1986) introduced an exciting new approach for determining the fine scale structure of reservoir rock pore systems using rate-controlled mercury
porosimetry. The approach was based on a technique that injected mercury into a small core sample at extremely low
rates. During the process, the mercury pressure and volume were accurately measured. Coretest Systems, Inc. has recently developed the Automatic System for Pore Examination, ASPE-730, for determining the three dimensional architecture of pores using rate controlled mercury injection porosimetry. Major improvements in fluid delivery and pressure
measurement technology since the early work allow the ASPE-730 system to further expand the potential of this type of
analysis. Mercury injection under these conditions consist of smooth, reversible changes punctuated by jumps in capillary pressure, the sequence of which follows from the structure of the porous medium and the saturation history The resulting pressure versus volume curve shows a general capillary pressure curve shape with a significant number of measurable, nearly instantaneous, pressure drops. By calculating the volume of the pore segment occupied by mercury in a
given jump, the pore system can be classified into numbers and sizes of both pore bodies and pore throats. The ASPE730 system includes the integral pump coreholder assembly, temperature controlled chamber, vacuum pump, computerdata acquisition system, analysis software, printer and all necessary items required to start performing ASPE measurements. Mercury must be supplied by user.

AP-608
Automated Klinkenberg
Permeameter / Porosimeter
The AP-608 Automated "Klinkenberg" Permeameter-Porosimeter is a cost effective advanced system for performing automated permeability and porosity tests at overburden pressures to 9950 psi over a wide permeability range. The AP-608 uses a pressure decay technique to determine Klinkenberg corrected permeabilities, slip and turbulence correction factors. Porosity is determined using a Boyles law technique. The unique
design of the AP-608 hydrostatic coreholder not only enables quick sample loading and unloading, but also
offers quick diameter changes in less than 5 minutes for the production oriented laboratories. It is now standard with a hydrostatic loading feature. Simply load the core in the core-holder, enter the test and core data
into the included control computer, and the AP-608 automated control system does the rest. Microsoft Windows compatible software, and other advanced features make the AP-608 the best core analysis system in
the world.
Note: Coretest Systems makes no warranties or representations when measuring very low permeabilities (<.1 md) using
helium. It is possible that the API standard pulse decay calculation method used in the AP-608 system may determine a
higher equivalent liquid permeability than is measured using a steady state flow system. For low to very low permeabilities we recommend using Nitrogen to obtain a more accurate measurement of Kl until this calculation issue is resolved.

MIS-Series
Mercury Injection Systems
The MIS Series of mercury injection systems are designed for injection pressures to 15,000 psi which enable pore entry
radius measurements to below 0.01 microns. The systems include software that calculates pore entry radius, converts
pressure data to equivalent air/brine, air/oil, and oil/brine systems, and displays the data in tabular and graphical formats
that can be used to correlate the mercury injected data to reservoir capillary pressure characteristics. The measured
data is presented in cumulative and incremental tabular from with graphical representations of mercury saturation versus
pressure, equivalent system saturation versus pressure, and pore size distribution versus percent pore space in cumulative and incremental (Histogram) formats. A J-Function calculation for correlation of capillary pressure data across several systems is also available.
A sample is placed into the measuring chamber and a vacuum is imposed upon the system. The mercury level is then
brought up until the sample is covered. The chamber pressure is raised in an incremental fashion, injecting mercury into
the sample. This volumetric data is corrected for system variations to obtain injected volumes. Data is measured from
vacuum through the threshold pressure of the sample and on to 15,000 psi. Retraction curve can also be performed with
the MIS. Another feature of the MIS-Series is the easy opening chamber cap that offers repeatable, user friendly sample
loading and unloading. The coreholders are located in a temperature controlled ventilated chamber for minimizing operator exposure to mercury vapors.
Features
Measured data can be used to calculate pore size distribution and capillary pressure characteristics.
Injection pressures to 15,000 psi define pore entry radius
to below 0.01 microns.
System includes spreadsheet software for calculation of
pore size distribution and conversion of pressures to air/
water, air/oil, and oil/water systems.
Software includes tabular and graphical printout capabilities for injected volume, pressure, pore entry radius, and
system pressure conversions.

the import screen, the data can be fitted and
filtered using fixed polynomial or other curve
fit relationships or fitting to non-linear relationships using the powerful Lev-Mar curve fitting
system that will allow the user to fit to a custom user defined equation. Once entered, the
system will fit and if selected, will run a automatic optimization routine that can provide a
simpler less hands on approach to generating
