Precision imaging for deeper reservoir insight
talk to an expertTransform physical core samples into high-fidelity digital twins. Using advanced imaging technologies, from Dual Energy CT to micro-CT and FIB-SEM, we capture the full spectrum of pore structures and rock fabrics. This multi-scale approach seamlessly integrates core data with well logs, delivering a unified, reservoir-wide perspective.
With a focus on quality, consistency, and scalability, our Core Imaging Service ensures that your digital core analysis begins with the most reliable data possible, enabling faster and more confident decisions throughout the reservoir lifecycle.
Digital core analysis delivers faster results, reduces uncertainty, and supports smarter field development strategies. Whether you are appraising new assets or optimizing EOR, our imaging services provide the clarity and confidence to move forward faster.
Our team brings unmatched expertise in preparing core, sidewall cores, fractured cores, and cuttings for digital analysis. From hard rocks to weakly cemented sands, our precision techniques—including diamond sawing, laser milling, argon ion milling, and focused ion beam—preserve structural integrity and optimize imaging quality, ensuring you get the most from every recovered sample.
Our integrated imaging and preparation workflows isolate the contributions of individual storage and flow units, revealing the true heterogeneity of your reservoir. This unit-level insight is essential for accurate upscaling and forms the foundation of high-resolution, predictive reservoir simulation models.
