Capillary Pressure and Resistivity Index rig

Our PcRI rigs are plc controlled systems for measuring capillary pressure and electrical property using refined or reservoir fluids. Special oil and water-wetted porous plates allows for both drainage and imbibition processes.

Key features

  • Easy to use interface, with touchscreen and PLC

  • Samples placed in temperature controlled cabinets (30°C - 100°C)

  • Automatic close-in capillary pressure in case of power failure.

  • Standarized layout with 8 coreholders per cabinet.

  • Up to 700bar confining pressure.

Optional features

  • Individual pressure control

  • Coreholder with 4-point electrode

  • Automatic volume and resistivity log

  • Temperature 120°C or 150°C

  • In-Situ Saturation by X-ray or Isotope (ISSM)

  • X-ray transparent Core Holders (for ISSM)
