Abstract: | A complex of methodology, instrumentation, and software tools is worked out, which makes it possible to accomplish high-precision measurements of permeability for a single-phase fluid and its anisotropy within a wide range of values both under the normal conditions and high temperature and pressure.The transient method, modified with allowance for the dependence of the properties of a percolating gas on the parameters of its state, enables one to simultaneously determine, from the data of a single experiment, the permeability values for a sample of condensed fluid and the Klinkenberg constant, which characterizes the pore space of rock. This approach made it possible to substantially increase the accuracy of measurements, reducing their labor-intensiveness.The method of varying the flow shape makes it possible to simultaneously determine, in the course of a single experiment, the axial and radial components of the permeability tensor of anisotropic rocks with layered structure. The instrumentation and software implementing these new methodologies are developed and thoroughly tested. |
