Automatic Core Flooding System Model ACFS50-180

RESERVOIR CONDITIONS COREFLOODING SYSTEM - is a automated, modular Core Flooding system that is configured for unsteady-state relative permeability tests. Core Flooding experiments in single and multi phase displacements are available in manual and automatic mode, addition of the gas delivery system allow performance of gas displacement experiments. In addition to relative permeability experiments the system is capable of performing a range of reservoir quality assessment experiments including: critical velocity, brine sensitivity, return permeability and acid sensitivity. This system is specifically configured to take advantage of Core Laboratories many years of performing waterflooding and simulation experiments.

The base system is configured for liquid/liquid displacements under unsteady state conditions or miscible flood, polymer and other enhanced oil recovery experiments to be performed. The system is rated to 10,000 psig confining pressure, 9,000 psig pore pressure at 360 °F (180 °C) temperature. The system features automated data acquisition, automated operation via an Inter Active Windows based graphical interface.

A test sequencer allows the user to predefine unique test sequences which can be saved and run at any time.
