Sponge coring - Sponge liner

EG Moulding Industries aluminum inner tubes are suitable for more severe, higher temperature service than our Fiberglass Inner Tubes. The aluminum offers easy, low-friction core entry. These disposable tubes also serve as packaging to the laboratory, protecting the core from direct contact. There is no need to transfer the core from inner tubes to sample boxes. Two types of aluminum tubes, fluted and slick, provide options for a wide range of applications.

​

Sponge Core samples provides measure of:
• Oil Saturation
• Water Saturation
• Permeability
• Relative Permeability
• Wettability
• Capillary pressure
• Identification of secondary and tertiary recovery
• Oil/water contact sand transition zones.
• Depleted zones within a given formation.
• Foot-by-foot analysis permits identification of thin zones heterogeneity.
• Oil wet sponge liner absorbs oil produced by core enabling identification of mobile oil zones.
• If trace is used, it measures the amount of fluids flushed during the coring by drilling mud.
