Reservoir stimulation

Formation damage and well treatement evaluation system (FDS 350)

The elegant and robust FDS350 quantifies the effects of drilling fluids on the formation by tangentially circulating drilling mud on one of the flat faces of a cylindrical core sample at reservoir- representative conditions. Specifically, the versatile device can perform static filtration tests, mud invasion evaluation, and stimulation tests. Furthermore, liquid can be injected through the core to determine the mud’s effects on absolute permeability. An ample range of fluids can be studied with this apparatus: water and oil-based muds, cement effluents, chemical wash treatment fluids and acid, corrosive treatment fluids. Initial permeability, return permeability, brine sensitivity, critical flow velocity,

BENEFITS:

* Drilling mud tests are performed under realistic field conditions by flowing the fluids tangentially to the face of the core, thanks to a special leak-off core holder.
* Mud pump flow rate of 3 l/min max ensures an efficient shear rate to simulate the real operating conditions
