The New Integrated Rock Mechanics Test Systems
|
|
|
|
We are glad to introduce you to the newly designed Integrated Rock Mechanics Test System (IRMTS). The IRMTS was developed by DCI in response to a need for a compact triaxial rock mechanics test systems suitable for performing routine triaxial tests on plug-size rock samples.
|
|
|
|

Integrated into a single desk-size test system, the systems include:
-
High-stiffness, 2-column load frame with servo-controlled hydraulic actuator
-
Triaxial test cell with in-vessel instrumentation for strain and load measurement
-
Servo-controlled confining pressure system
-
Servo-controlled pore pressure system
-
System transducer signal conditioning electronics
-
PC-based data acquisition and test control system
|
|
|
System Features
-
The sample stack can be assembled quickly on the test cell lower closure.
-
Confining system and pore systems are integrated into the test station with easy-to-follow schematics.
-
The IRMTS frame includes a large table top area where the operator has space to perform sample assembly.
-
Pore pressure intensifier provides precise volume measurement.

A core flood system flows a fluid (gas or liquid) through a core sample at simulated reservoir conditions and measures flow parameters.
Because of the wide variety of tests that might be conducted in a core flood system, our equipment is typically customized to meet the exact requirements of a specific customer application. The systems below illustrate the wide range of options that can be incorporated into a core flood system.
|
|
|
These systems are used for:
-
Stimulation studies
-
persion of stimulation fluids
-
Flow distribution in multi-layered reservoirs
-
Steady state permeability measurement
-
Relative permeability measurement
-
Formation damage tests
-
EOR tests and research
-
Acidization studies
-
Water flooding
-
Drilling mud invasion

Volume Pressure Actuator Syringe Pumps
|
|
|
-
Permeability or relative permeability experiments where pulse-free precisely controlled constant flow rate is required.
-
Permeability of relative permeability experiments where a constant pressure drop across the sample is required.
-
Drainage-Imbibition tests, where the VPA can act as a receiver to control back pressure in one part of the test, and then subsequently as a pump to push fluid back through the sample.
-
Pore-volume compressibility tests where a precise measurement of pore fluid volume expressed.
-
Sample desaturation measurements where the precise volume of fluid expressed from a sample is required.
-
Flow experiments where precise back pressure must be maintained.
