Description
The PMI Liquid Permeameter measures the steady state permeability of plug sized rock samples by flowing a single-phase liquid. When running a test, a core plug is placed into the core holder and the confining pressure is applied. The liquid is injected into a saturated core sample at a constant flow rate, and then the stabilized upstream pressure is recorded. The outlet pressure is atmospheric pressure. Differential pressure, flow rate, and the viscosity of the liquid are incorporated into Darcy’s law to calculate the liquid permeability of the rock sample.

- Fast and accurate measurement of liquid permeability
- Confining pressure up to 10,000 psi
- Easy to load and unload the core sample
