An oil-water SS displacement experiment was carried out on a 5.0 cm long and 3.0 cm diameter sandstone core plug taken from Duyung-1 well in Terengganu. The porosity of the plug is 25% and the grain density is 2.65 g/cm3. Oil and water densities are 0.85 g/cm3 and 1.05 g/cm3, while viscosities are 2.0 cP and 1.0 cP, respectively. The differential pressure for the test is 12.94 psi. Other data are provided in the following table. Calculate and plot the oil-water relative permeability data and explain the graph

Step 1 (a) What is the expected value of 28-day strength when accelerated strength = 2,580? We are given the accelerated strength, x = 2,580 psi. Use this value of x in the given regression line equation in order to find the expected value of 28-day strength when the accelerated strength is 2,580 psi. y = 1,840 + 1.4x = 1,840 + 1. = 5452✔✔✔ 2580✔✔ Step 2 5,452 2,580 The expected value of 28-day strength (in pounds per square inch) with an accelerated strength of 2,580 psi is 5452✔ (b) By how much can we expect 28-day strength to change when accelerated strength increases by 1 psi? 5,452 psi. Recall the formula for the regression line: y = Bot Box, where is the y-intercept and ₁ represents the slope, which is, by definition, the change in y for every one unit increase in x. Recall that we were previously given the regression equation y = 1,840 + 1.4x. We can apply this definition of slope to this situation by saying when accelerated strength increases by 1 psi, the expected change in…
