| Zusammenfassung: | Computerised tomography (CT) is a non-destructive tool to determine rock properties in 3D. Originating in the medical field, it has proven successful in geological work for the examination of the inner structure of various types of rock, and the tool has seen use in the study of sedimentary structures. This article looks at the use of CT in conjunction with Virtual reality (VR), to enable reservoir engineers better understand the petrophysical properties of core rock samples. |
