Applications

Perform multi-scale geological and petrophysical analysis of your core imaging data

From Core to Pore, using imagery from large CT to FIB/SEM systems, PerGeos Software helps you digitally understand and validate observations and properties of your rock data with a high level of confidence.

Ability to interpret images at multiple resolutions from multiple modalities, advanced 2D/3D and 3D/3D registration tools and adaptive thresholding make PerGeos Software a unique digital platform for powerful up-scaling workflows.

This allows geological and petrophysical properties to be numerically obtained with confidence since all scales of the pore space can be analyzed and interpreted to calculate properties such as global porosity or relative permeability.

Whole Core CT data

Perform geological, petrophysical, core-flooding, or Dual Energy specific analyses on virtual assemblies of your whole core CT imaging data.

Import and pre-process CT imaging data. Assemble multiple large core scans, generate logs, perform dip and strike analyses, conduct rock typing and facies classification, generate automated reports. Evaluate and select sub-regions of interest for down-scale investigations.

Core CT plugs

Obtain actionable insights on your core plug imagery data acquired using X-ray Computed Tomography.

Perform rock typing, porosity estimation or saturations analysis. Extract and analyze wormholes. Use Dual Energy CT (DECT) technique to obtain actual density information that can be compared with density logs and used for further characterization of rock formations. Identify and select sub-plugs for further down-scale analysis.

Micro-CT core plugs

Microfocus X-ray tomography (micro-CT) allows to capture high-resolution imaging on core samples at the millimeter scale.

From this imaging data, PerGeos Software allows geologists, petrophysisists and reservoir engineers to obtain advanced information on the rock micro-structure, from pore space and pore network analysis to fluid flow properties calculation, such as pore size distribution, grain classification, or absolute permeability and two-phase flow properties.

SEM rock thin sections

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) systems allow geologists to capture high-quality images of thin sections of rocks.

PerGeos Software offers a dedicated digital platform to extract petrology or mineralogy information from this thin section imagery data. It allows for the characterization of properties such as pore size distribution, intergranular porosity, or grain shape and orientation. It also provides tools to perform mineralogical analysis using SEM-EDS data.

PerGeos Software also provides the unique ability to perform Process-Based Modeling, which is the simulation of the formation of the rock by generating a 3D model from 2D images analyses.

Focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy

FIB-SEM Electron Microscopy systems are invaluable tools that produce high-resolution imagery of nanoporous structures of tight reservoir and for multi-scale analysis.

PerGeos Software provides a comprehensive dedicated feature set to perform digital analyses of FIB-SEM rock sample images. It offers unique imaging artifact correction capabilities, pre-processing wizard, advanced segmentation, quantification, and simulation tools.

PerGeos Software allows geologists to accurately characterize pore space and organic vs mineral matter volume fractions. It also provides tools for creating numerical Pore Network Models to perform petrophysical analysis such as Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure Simulation or Fluid Flow Simulations for Permeability Calculation.
