A measurement of a fluids capability to be pumped. Usually refers to cement slurry and is also called the thickening time.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of fluid clarity. Suspended solids and color in water reduces light transmission. Turbidity is a comparison of the amount of light that passes through a trial fluid compared to a clear sample.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of how completely a flooding fluid displaces the saturated fluid in a reservoir.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of permeability (ability of fluids to flow through the rock). The relationship is an empirical law which states that the velocity of flow through porous media is directly proportional to the hydraulic gradient, assuming that the flow is laminar and inertia can be neglected.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of temperatures along the wellbore. Useful for determining temperatures at any point, static and circulating temperature and tops of cement column. May also be used to locate the top of a fracture if run soon after the frac.
Industry:Oil & gas
A measurement of the comparison of large to fine grains. A well sorted formation has a narrow size range between the smallest and the largest particles.
