Este método ofrece una alternativa para la determinación cuantitativa de la heterogeneidad en el análisis de las muestras de roca tipo plug en lo que se refiere a porosidad, propiedad fundamental para definir el volumen de hidrocarburos presentes en el yacimiento y determinarla es una de las aplicaciones básicas de la CT. Donde, usando los coeficientes de atenuación de las imágenes CT se determina la heterogeneidad, con el fin de definir qué tan representativa es la muestra y garantizar la veracidad de los resultados en posteriores pruebas. En este caso, se determinó una alta heterogeneidad para las muestras sintéticas y una baja heterogeneidad para la muestra nativa. El aporte significativo de esta innovadora metodología está relacionado con la visualización del interior de la roca de una forma no intrusiva, siendo este un método único que permite cuantificar la homogeneidad y calcular la porosidad del volumen total de la roca sin alterar la integridad de la muestra.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT The X-ray computed tomography (CT), is a technique that allows inspection of the internal structure of the rock in a non-destructive way from images of cuts obtained from the scanning of the samples. This method offers an alternative for the Quantitative determination of heterogeneity in the analysis of samples of rock type plug in terms of porosity, a fundamental property to define hydrocarbons volume present in the reservoir and determining it is one of the basic applications of the CT. Where, using the attenuation coefficients of the CT images the heterogeneity is determined, in order to define how representative the sample is and guarantee the veracity of the results in subsequent tests. In this case, a high heterogeneity was determined for the synthetic samples and a low heterogeneity for the native sample. The significant contribution of this innovative methodology is related to the visualization inside of the rock in a non-intrusive way, this being a unique method that allows to quantify the homogeneity and calculate the porosity of the total volume of the rock without altering the integrity of the sample.]]></p></abstract>
