Summary This paper presents a computer tomography (CT) method for determining small-scale permeabilities in rock cores. Correlation of small-scale permeability and porosity demonstrates a CT capability for core characterization. CT-monitored miscible corefloods investigate the influence of heterogeneities and the mobility ratios on sweepout.
