Scaled Completion Testing (SCT)
SCT With Multi-axial Stress
A modified triaxial cell for the application and control of high stresses on both axial and lateral directions. Initially designed for single-phase flow, then modified to incorporate multiphase injection.
Two solenoid diaphragm metering pumps for oil and brine injection (Max 22.7 lit/hr)
Axial stress up to 10,000 psi
Lateral stress up to 5,000 psi
