The video separator is a precision device used for separating and determining the oil, brine or gas volumes that are produced from a core sample during a two phase relative permeability test. It consists of a separation bore used for collecting and separating produced fluids under gravity and a measurement bore used for visualising the two phases fluid interface at room conditions. The measurement bore consists of a glass tube to allow for sample visibility. Placing a light behind the tube allows easy discernment of the two phases interface level. Measurement of produced fluids during the displacement test is performed with a video camera which monitors the position of the interface of the two fluids produced from the core sample in the measurement bore of the separator. The position of the interface is directly proportional of the volumes of fluids produced from the core sample and so of the change in the core saturation. The high resolution camera is equipped with an integrated zoom and a back lighting installed in the rear side of the tube. The camera is connected to the computer station so that the image of the fluid can be displayed and recorded on the PC. The video software incorporates facilities which enable to detect automatically the liquid/ liquid and gas/ liquid interface and so derive the volumes of produced fluids from the core and so the changes in the core saturation.
