Reservoir Engineering lab is equipped with advanced equipment to determine petrophysical properties of the rocks. Tests can be performed to determine liquid permeability, gas permeability, relative permeability, porosity, saturation, electrical properties of rocks.
The drilling fluid lab is designed to perform tests related to the design and analysis of drilling fluid systems. Properties such as density, viscosity, filtration characteristics, pH, thermal stability, and sand content are determined as per API standards.
The Production Engineering Lab is equipped for evaluating production and well stimulation operations, including testing crude oil and fluid properties and simulating multiphase flow behavior.
The Fracturing Lab focuses on rock mechanics and hydraulic fracturing studies. It helps estimate rock properties and analyze fracture growth under different geological conditions.
The Fuel Lab is equipped for testing various fuel properties such as flash point, viscosity, cloud point, pour point, and calorific value.
