With our H.O.M.E.R. procedure we obtain an accurate 3D view of your samples in incident light with the highest magnifications currently possible with optical stereo microscopy. The Zeiss V20 reaches optical magnifications of up to 345 times, and even more with further digital zoom. The resolutions obtained can be compared to those of the mid-range of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), but with dynamic view and with colours and texture.

Our objective is to obtain a better understanding of your reservoir. So we can answer questions like:

Why does production not meet expectation? Are permeability barriers present? What does the transitional Gas- Oil- Water contact look like? What causes conflicting poro/perm data?

Therefore we pay special attention to the identification and semi-quantification of:

— nature/ distribution of primary and secondary porosity

— macroporosity and microporosity

— connected and isolated macroporosity

— authigenic cements and diagenetic sequence

— residual oil and its relationship with diagenesis, especially in the case of a transitional Oil Water Contact.
