NMR/Special core analysis
ALS
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance can be used to study the properties of a fluid saturated rock sample. Using a magnetic field the tool aligns the spin of all protons in the pore fluid, the time to return to a random orientation (T2) is an indication of the both the fluid and its interaction with the rock sample.
Laboratory NRM can be used for the following

Determining sample porosity and poresize distribution
Determining Irreducable water saturation on fresh state samples
Determining residual Oil saturation
Providing a calibration method for down hole NMR solutions
Developing models to predict changes in pore size (facies)
