Civil Engineering

Sandstone pore of 20 mm in diameter and 100 mm longwith porosity of 15% is prepared for
core flood experiment. The sandstone pore is fully (100%) saturatedwith water by injecting
water with viscosity of 1cp at volumetric flow rate of 20 cubicmm/sec. A pressure drop of 1
atm was recorded across the pore during the injectionprocess.
i. What is the absolute permeability of the sandstone pore samplein mD?
ii. What is the pore volume of sandstone sample?
iii. The sandstone pore sample is flooded by oil with viscosity of2 cp until
water saturation reaching to 25%. Calculate the oil volume insidethe pore
at the end of flood
