For PVT Oil Research, Core Analysis and Supercritical Fluids
The new VISCOlab pvt viscosity system incorporates the Cambridge Viscosity SPL440 viscometer and the VISCOpro 2000 processor with an elegant new graphic user interface and a high pressure fluid management system. Sample flow can be controlled with a simple 3-valve plumbing configuration. Pressure is monitored with a digital pressure gauge. Temperature is controlled with an isothermal oven.
The VISCOlab pvt is based on years of experience in oil
research, exploration and supercritical fluid viscosity
measurements. The new instrument minimizes fluid
volume and produces iso-thermal temperature
equilibration in an oven. The system also simplifies
the process of pressurizing the measurement cell
and requires no mercury.
PVT measurements that used to take days take just
a few hours with the VISCOlab pvt. It is the first
viscometer to measure gas and gas condensates. A new
graphic interface provides a real time display of test
conditions, easy data storage and management. The
VISCOlab pvt provides statistical certainty that insures
the fluid conditions are stable, accurate, and repeatable.
