M9130 Slim Tube System
Grace Instrument's M9130 Slim Tube
System is used to test dynamic miscibile
(or homeogeneous) solutions at reservoir
conditions.
Before testing gas is injected at usercontrolled
pressure through a slim tube
which has been saturated in oil through a
high pressure pump. A back pressure
regulator achieves a constant pressure
inside the system while the liquid waste,
(or effluent) discharged from the slim tube
can be observed through a capillary sight
glass tube.
They are then expanded to atmospheric pressure and temperature through a
back pressure regulator. An ultrasonic multiphase separator for liquid
measurement as the produced gas is measured by a wet gas meter.
A recovery curve is plotted using the raw data obtained during the testing of
different miscible displacement experiments. Additional components such as
density meter and gas chromatograph may be added to extend the capabilities
of the instrument.
