ABSTRACT:
A liquid hydrocarbon and an insoluble displacing fluid are passed through a core sample from a subsurface formation. The two-phase effluent flow out of the core sample is collected in a container where the two phases separate into an overlying fluid phase and an underlying fluid phase and the volumes of each phase are measured as an indication of the permeability of the core sample. Such volumes are measured by placing fluid level detectors in the container and detecting the movements of the air-fluid interface of the top of the overlying fluid phase and the fluid-fluid interface between the two phases as the fluid is drained from the container.
