About this document

Gas Permeability Measurement in Rocks by Richard Owusu is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes a lab experiment to measure the gas permeability of a rock sample using a gas permeameter. Key details include: - The experiment measured the length, diameter, upstream and downstream pressures, and flow rate of nitrogen gas through a rock plug to calculate its permeability. - The results showed gas permeability decreases with increasing mean pressure due to the Klinkenberg effect, where gas molecules slip along pore walls at low pressures. - Plotting gas permeability versus the
