  • Methods of NMR measurement of crushed porous media
    Patent number: 11768144
    Abstract: A method of measuring petrophysical information from a crushed porous media including performing one or more NMR measurements on the porous media fully submerged in an NMR visible fluid, performing one or more NMR measurements on the porous media alone following centrifugation, performing one or more NMR measurements on the porous media after rinsing with a NMR invisible fluid, and analyzing the NMR measurements to extract a petrophysical property.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 15, 2021
    Date of Patent: September 26, 2023
    Assignee: Green Imaging Technologies Inc.
    Inventors: Michael J. Dick, Derrick P. Green, Dragan Veselinovic, Taylor Kenney
  • Methods of nuclear magnetic resonance measurement of crushed porous media
    Patent number: 11680888
    Abstract: A method of a nuclear magnetic resonance measurement of a crushed porous media sample, including where the crushed pieces of the sample are not smaller than the pore size of the porous media, the surfaces of the sample are wet with a liquid and the pores of the sample are saturated with a fluid, subjecting the sample to a centrifugal force, performing a nuclear magnetic resonance measurement of the sample, and determining a petrophysical property of the sample from data acquired from the acquisition scan.
