X‐ray Imaging of Fluid Flow in Capillary Imbibition Experiments
Influence of Compaction and Localized Deformation
Imaging techniques have been widely used to investigate microstructural features in porous rocks. Among them x‐ray computed tomography (CT) scanning methods are of common use in geosciences. In order to study hydromechanical coupling in reservoir rocks, a three stage methodology was developed combining x‐ray CT scanning on intact rock samples, mechanical tests with acoustic emissions recording to investigate the localization of induced damage, and again x‐ray CT scanning on the damaged samples after unloading. Some of the results have been published recently; a complementary data set was presented on a larger number of porous rocks, focusing on the influence of rock microstructure, compaction processes and compaction bands on fluid flow patterns. It is shown that conducting capillary imbibition experiments under CT scanning is a powerful technique to image fluid flow patterns in reservoir rocks and how they are affected by deformation. crystal microstructure; flow through porous media; image processing; single photon emission computed tomography
