PVT TEST FOR UNCONVENTIONAL RESERVOIRS
Problem
2
• Traditional PVT testing methods do not include the effects of the pore sizes. They cannot accurately specify fluid properties or behavior for the unconventional reservoirs.
• There is not enough data on diffusion coefficient of a displacing fluid into the crude oil it contacts.
• Can not decide which displacing fluid need to be used.

Measurement Challenge
4
How do you measure pressure or other parameters in channels smaller/thinner than human hair?
Value Proposition
5
By measuring fluid properties in micro-fractureswe are proposing to increase oil recovery
Patent Pending
