PROTECCIN Y PRESERVACIN DE NCLEOS Los ncleos deben protegerse
(empacarse) para que no se daen mientras son transportados del pozo
al laboratorio y evitar que se alteren sus propiedades. Para ello
se realizan algunas de las siguientes acciones:Envolver los ncleos
con materiales no absorbentes como plstico y colocarlos en cajas de
lmina, madera o cartn, rellenando los espacios vacos para evitar
que se maltraten, o bien, se colocan en tubos de metal (acero,
aluminio) y se tapan los extremos.
-
Si el ncleo fue cortado con muestreadores para formacin suave
y/o deleznable, no debe quitarse el tubo protector de neopreno y
con esta proteccin se empaca.Si es necesario congelar al ncleo se
usa hielo seco, pero primero se debe colocar en recipientes
especiales, tipo termo. Este procedimiento es ideal para conservar
los fluidos con los que se recuper el ncleo. Cada ncleo debe ser
bien identificado antes de enviarse al laboratorio.

CL-7000 ELECTRICALLY-HEATED RETORT [CORE DISTILLATION
APPARATUS]
The CL-7000 Retort will handle 10 retort cups for distillation
requiring about 45 minutes. Stainless steel, heat-resistant cups
are charged with approximately 100 grams (accurately weighed) of
core, placed into the retort, and simultaneously heated slowly to
the desired temperature. During distillation, water is first
removed and, after passing through a cooling bath of water, is
trapped in graduated receiving tubes. Later, oil is distilled and
trapped on top of the water. By timing, a plateau in the
distillation curve will indicate the final distillation of free
water, and an increase of water will represent water of hydration
or, otherwise, bound water. The efficiency of the condensation
system approaches 100% for water, and vanes between 60% and 85%
recovery of oils. It is desirable to run a calibration curve for
oils of the particular nature to be expected. For sidewall core
samples, smaller cups with longer stems are provided. By altering
the procedure, porosity and fluid content of cores may be obtained
from small core specimens. Smaller receiving tubes are matched to
the sidewall cups. Distillation techniques are similar. The CL-7000
Retort is available in either 110 or 220- volt models with 20
heat-resistant cups (100 grams); twenty 20 ml. and twenty 10 ml.

CORE GRINDERS-CORE DRILLS
Cores to be analyzed in the laboratory must be prepared for the
tests to be made. Experiments may require that the core be cut to
length, square with its axis, or that it be drilled with passages,
or that it be shaped accurately to size. RUSKA Core Grinders and
Drills are tools especially designed to cut cores for laboratory
analyses. Since core grinding and core drilling must be performed
wet, the tools are furnished with built-in coolant piping, and are
mounted in pans provided with splash guards. Because of their light
weight, the tools are not only suitable for general laboratory use,
but are particularly adapted for installation in portable field
laboratories. The independent motor drive makes it possible to
utilize the Core Grinders with any type motor required. CORE
GRINDER The RUSKA Core Grinder is a motor driven bench grinder with
a double-end spindle. One end of the spindle may be equipped with
an emery or diamond-charged metal cut-off wheel for cutting core
sections. The other end is used with a cup-shaped emery facing
wheel for grinding the sections to size. Both wheels are protected
by splash guards. Adjustable work tables with removable tops are
provided for each spindle end. Each table has a guide groove for a
support bracket with an adjustable gaging stop and a scale. lf the
gage is set to the scale reading corresponding to the desired core
size, the core may be held against this stop and thus be sized
without further measuring. The core grinder is used to cut cubical
or other rectangular cores. A Twin-Blade Cutting Attachment to cut
opposite sides of a core parallel to a predetermined size can be
supplied for the core grinder. This attachment fits the left side
of the grinder and consists of a special work table top with a
support finger for the core to be cut, a spacing collar for the two
diamond charged cut-off wheels to be used, and a sleeve, fitting
over the coolant supply tube, to distribute the coolant on both
cut-off wheels. This attachment can be furnished for either 5/8,
3/4, or 1 wide cuts. lf more than one cutting size is desired, only
additional finger, collar, and sleeve combinations are required,
while the same table is used.

CUTTER FOR TEST SPECIMENS [DIAMOND SAW BLADES] Two diamond saw
blades, 8 diameter by 0.072 thickness, are mounted parallel with a
sliding tray that permits cutting slices of core test specimen 2
centimeters in thickness. By making three passes through the
blades, a cube of the material to be tested is obtained, and
permeability can be measured in three directions, as well as
reverse directions. Use of a cube affords vertical, as well as two
horizontal, permeability measurements on the same piece. This
prevents variations of measured permeability due to rock
characteristics of differently located samples, and reflects actual
variations within a single layer of the core. Spacing of the
diamond blades may be slightly increased, if desired, but space
greater than 1 is not recommended, as the holder for the cores must
be proportionally increased. A grinding wheel is attached to the
other end of the shaft. Normally, either water or oil is contained
in the tray and is picked up by the revolving diamond blades.
However, liquid may be introduced directly to the blades by means
of a stream and drained through a hole in the base of the tray.
Electric motors are of 1/3 hp. 110 or 220-volt AC, 60 cycle. (Other
motors are available.) Diamond saw, as illustrated, includes two
extra diamond bortz blades, 8 by 0.072 thick, grinding wheel,
electric motor (110 or 220 AC 60 cycle) 2 belts, stainless steel
housing, and 3 extra bearings. Suggested accessory items core
extraction equipment; drying oven, permeameter; porosimeter.
Weight, crated for export approximately 84 lbs.

AUTOMATIC DRILL PRESS
The Automatic Drill Press is designed to automatically drill
into various sizes of core specimens. The press is constructed to
stand up to stress imposed by the hardest rock formations , Other
features of the press include a tripodic main frame, a
chrominumolyhdenum steel spindle mounted in a cast aluminum head
assembly. Drill bit coolant fluid is introduced through the swivel
assembly attached to the top of the spindle. The swivel assembly is
designed so that water is introduced inside the drill bit and
forced out the cutting surface to cool and clean the cutting edge.
The vee-shaped platform that holds the sample core is constructed
of a heavy steel and is removable. This feature allows both
horizontal and vertical samples to be drilled. This platform is
mounted inside a steel fluid pan. The fluid pan is bolted to a
rectangular section transport beam that is displaced in a vertical
plane by means of two hydraulic cylinders attached to the head
casting. The drill bit is held fixed in the aluminum head casting.
Pulleys and vee belts selected for driving diamond drill bits at
approximately 915 RPM when operated on 50/60 cycle power. By
adjusting the motor and changing the belt to different pulley
sizes, different speeds can be obtained. Variable speed direct
current motors with speed control systems are available on special
order. Diamond core bits are available in core plug sizes of 3/4,
1, 1, and 1. All bits are internally threaded 17 UNC-2B-R.H.
Diamond core bits are not furnished with press and must be ordered
as required. The dimensions are 30 wide, 23 deep, and 43 high.
Weight, crated for export approximately 450 lbs.
