INTRODUCTION
This report comprises the results of Special Core Analysis tests performed on a
suite of samples from.Wel1 34/10-16 of the Gullfaks field situated in the
Norwegian sector of the North Sea.
The request and specifications for the study were originally outlined in a telex
from Mr. Jon Ringen of Statoil, ref. telex ZCZC 091001 dated 20/9/83. These
test requirements were later modified in a letter from Mr. Kora Sdrheim of
Statoil, ref. letter THE/BF dated 2/11/83.
The results of the analyses have been presented in three volumes. Volume 1
comprises the results of the initial Klinkenberg permeabilities, the residual
gas determinations and gas-oil relative permeability tests. Volume 2 comprises
the results of the high rate waterflood tests and Volume 3 includes the results
from the low rate waterfloods with the accompanying high rate 'bump floods'.
Exact details of the organisation of each volume are presented on the contents
pages which like the introduction are also included in each volume to ensure
their individual clarity.
