water surface if the water is overlain by oil. Also compute the capillary pressure in
the tube.

5. The grains of a sandstone core sample are 10 microns in diameter and are packed in
the cubic arrangement. The core is saturated with water at atmosplheric pressure (14.7
psia). If we want to displace the water from the core completely by using the oil of
Exercise 4, what is the minimum oil pressure required? Water oil quartz contact angle
is 45°.
Hint: To estimate the radius of a pore, assume it to be a circle of the same area as the
pore.
