The Core Technician will first locate and mark the maximum bedding, where visible, for each core piece. This enables the core to be slabbed correctly for later laboratory analysis as required. This is done before he is taking the plug samples parallel to the bedding whenever possible.
To take these plug samples from the core, our experienced core technician will have a solid geological knowledge and is properly trained to the highest standards in our core laboratory before being allowed to obtain wellsite samples from the core. With this fresh wellsite plug sampling whole core preservation is optimized.

Our goal is to ensure that all samples reach the laboratory in a good and preserved condition.
