Abstract
The author participated in the development of three new laboratory instruments. The directional permeability apparatus will be used to determine the directional permeability characteristics of reservoir type rocks. Its operation is simple although the samples are difficult to make. The relative permeability apparatus will be used to try and find the relationship between temperature and relative permeability in solid and unconsolidated cores. It has not made any completed runs as of the writing of this report but some are expected soon. The pressure calibration apparatus was made as a support instrument for the two previous instruments and as of this writing is working quite well.
