Laboratory of Geology and Oil Exploration

Description:

A geology laboratory contains a number of rocks and metals that need to be recognized and studied by students with the aim of knowing the types of metals, crystals, and crystalline systems, as well as studying the physical and chemical properties of these rocks and minerals, and identifying the origin of igneous and sedimentary rocks and their types, which enables the petroleum engineer to deal with rock formations during the drilling wells and production of oil and gas from it.

Equipments:

1. Mineral samples of various types of rocks which are identified directly by examining them and distinguishing them from each other through studying the physical properties such as color, fracture, taste, hardness, transparency, luster, magnetic and crystalline properties, scratching, .. etc.
2. Slices of typical samples of rocks whose structure is identified by microscope in the laboratory..
3. Attention is paid to studying in terms permeability and porosity due to their possibility of containing hydrocarbons, in addition to studying clay and salt rocks that form impermeable cap rocks for petroleum reservoir and traps.
