摘要:
A method to produce reconstituted structures that recreate the chemical, geological, and structural characteristics of a portion of a target reservoir formation by using drill cuttings material from the target reservoir formation. The method includes providing drill cuttings material from a known reservoir formation and grinding the drill cuttings material to particulates of one or more known particle sizes. In particular, an actual core sample may be replicated via a three-dimensional printer using the ground drill cuttings material from the target reservoir formation. A representative reconstituted structure may also be formed by applying a load to the ground drill cuttings material from the target reservoir formation. A slot flow device may also be formed via either three-dimensional printing with drill cutting particulates or the application of a load to the drill cutting particulates.
