Operating microfluidic testing at a commercial scale generates large volumes of data, primarily images, setting it apart from most lab tests. Some tests can generate thousands of .TIFF images and…
Since December 2023, the Interface Fluidics Team has been hard at work building two of the most advanced high-pressure microfluidics systems in the world. PTT Exploration and Production Company (PTTEP),…
Introduction From 2000 to 2014, the volume of water typically used for fracing an oil well in the United States increased from 177,000 gallons to over 4 million gallons. This…
1992:When I was three years old, I moved to Houston Texas where my dad was specializing in microsurgery at MD Anderson Cancer Center. I was three years old at the…
Underground fluid interactions take place between miscible fluids (oil and miscible CO2) and immiscible fluids (water and oil). Many factors determine the transport of fluids, one of which is fluid…
Recently, Interface Fluidics announced the release of SapphireLab, a revolutionary product in its class. SapphireLab brings together the three core technologies that we have been developing over the past six…
Interface Fluidics is a leader in creating microfluidic reservoir-mimicking chips, which we use to conduct a variety of measurements. When designing microfluidic systems, many factors must be taken into account.…
How do you know that the oil doesn’t rise above the water in the channels, or pores, of your microfluidic chips as a result of the density difference between the…
Just how tight is shale? How difficult is it for oil to flow through this rock compared to much more permeable rock like sandstone? Do lab tests at the beaker-scale…
Use our SapphireLab system to answer fluid questions in the energy, carbon storage, and mineral industries. Our microfluidic system, capable of high pressure and temperature, helps explain fluid behavior and enables our clients to make critical business decisions.
