A packer test injecting 12 litres a minute at 300 kPa, against 4 litres a minute at the same pressure in an adjacent section, indicates the first section is

  • A.three times as permeable
  • B.one third as permeable
  • C.of equal permeability
  • D.impermeable by comparison

Answer: A

Correct answer: three times as permeable

At the same injection pressure the take is proportional to the permeability, so \[ \frac{12}{4} = 3. \] The comparison is valid only because the pressure is the same in both sections; at different pressures the flows must be normalised before any such statement can be made.
