Pore Structure and Permeability Variations during Gas Displacement in Unconsolidated Sandstone Reservoirs through CT Reconstruction Analysis by Yuqiang Zha, Bao Cao, Fengying Li, Qing Ye, Shaopeng Zhu, Wei Zhou, Runfu Xiong

“…This work presented the quantitative results of pore structure in microscale and permeability variations during gas displacement in unconsolidated sandstone reservoirs through computed tomography (CT) reconstruction analysis. The results indicated that a more than 3% increase in porosity after gas displacement resulted from the enlargement of the pore and throat with a diameter of more than 20 μm and 3 μm, respectively, owing to the release and migration of clay and fine particles, in spite of the distribution frequency decline of both pore and throat with a small diameter. …”
