    Abstract: Techniques for determining a geologic property of a rock sample include (i) measuring a mass of a processed rock sample that includes a solid matrix and a fluid entrained within the solid matrix; (ii) measuring, using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), a volume of the fluid entrained within the solid matrix; (iii) measuring, using a gas porosimeter, a volume of the solid matrix of the processed rock sample; (iv) measuring, with a mercury immersion porosimeter, a bulk volume of the processed rock sample; and (v) determining, based at least on the measured volume of the fluid, the measured volume of the solid matrix, and the measured bulk volume, at least one of a bulk density, a grain density, or a porosity of the processed rock sample.

    Abstract: A method for determining the pore size distribution in a reservoir, including the steps: drilling a core sample out of the reservoir, determining a porosity distribution along the core sample, obtaining T2-distributions at different saturation levels of the core sample with formation brine, performing time domain subtraction on the T2-distributions to obtain T2-distributions at all saturation levels, determining the pore throat size distribution along the core sample, determining first porosities from the T2-distributions that correspond to second porosities of the pore throat size distribution for each saturation level, determining T2-distributions at the first porosities from the T2-distributions, determining pore throat sizes at the second porosities from the pore throat size distributions, plotting the pore throat sizes as function of the relaxation times T2 to obtain the surface relaxation, and determining the pore size distribution of the reservoir.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to substrate porosity determination. Some examples refer to a substrate porosity determination comprising an image capture device a controller to obtain a reference image by the image capture device; obtain a measurement image after a printing operation has been performed on a substrate located over the image capture device; compare the reference image and the measurement image—determine whether the substrate is porous based on the comparison; and determine a print parameter based on the determination of whether the substrate is porous.
