The capillary pressure in the rocks

Authors: A.M. Svalov (Oil and Gas Research Institute of RAS, Moscow, Russian Federation)

Results of the analysis of stable forms of menisci, formed in the pore space of rocks, are presented. The obtained results are used for more correct interpretation of capillary pressure curves, obtained with the help of existing tools and methods of laboratory testing.

Key words: capillary pressure, meniscuses, residual saturation.
