Mission Statement

To provide leading technology and personnel specialising in high quality core handling procedures, analysis and storage facilities to a global client base.

With very large investments going towards the acquisition of quality core, our priority is to safeguard the core from any unnecessary damage. Our constantly evolving technology guarantees leading preservation and core tracking techniques throughout its passage from the well surface to its arrival at the laboratory.

The strategic positioning of our UK based storage and laboratory facilities in Aberdeen and Guildford providing services in post core handling analysis, storage and core viewing allows us to achieve the highest standards of service in providing solutions matching specific client applications.

Kirk will keep your core safe

Objectives

It has been widely acknowledged for some time that core handling is critical to the retention of core integrity.

Unfortunately, not all cores undergo the necessary procedure to ensure that quality analysis can subsequently be obtained from the core samples.

To this end, Kirk Petrophysics offers you the most up to date methods of core stabilization and core handling processes along with expert supervision and quality control of the handling at well site and laboratory, if required.

Independent reports and recommendations are submitted to ensure up to date knowledge and development of techniques, ultimately leading towards obtaining high quality reservoir data.

All our methods and recommendations are based on our extensive experience in the field of international core analysis, with particular involvement in friable/soft sediment handling, analysis and research.
