Questions and Answers

What is responsible for holding some water in place, making it immobile?

  • Capillary pressure (correct)
  • Lower permeability values
  • Reduced pore throat sizes
  • Saturated core with brine water

What is the primary reason why free water flows through reduced pore throat sizes?

  • Brine saturation
  • Lower permeability values (correct)
  • Capillary pressure
  • Immobile water

What is the purpose of saturating the core with brine water?

  • To make all water immobile
  • To hold some water in place
