Poro-Labs, Inc. - The Pore Size Distribution Authority
Rock samples consist of grains with open spaces, pores, in between the grains. These pores can contain water, oil and/or gas. The amount of pores in a rock and their configuration determines the rock's porosity and permeability. The porosity of a material is defined as the ratio of the volume of open space (pore volume) to the total volume (bulk volume). The permeability of a material is a measure of the ease with which a gas or liquid can move through the pores.
Knowledge about porosity and permeability of sub-surface rocks is essential for reservoir description and for determination of the rock's oil and gas potential.
Poro-Labs, Inc. specializes in the characterization of pore throats for oil and gas reservoirs. Specifically we are experienced in providing poresize and porevolume measurements.
