Distillation extraction

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-001125

A laboratory method used to separate and quantify the oil and water content from a core sample. The sample is heated in a solvent, causing the fluids to vaporize and then condense into a graduated receiver for measurement. This technique provides accurate fluid saturations for reservoir characterization.
