Abstract
These images show the gas uptake into a cylindrical Marcellus shale rock sample 12 mm in diameter. Periodic 3D X-ray microCT imaging at a voxel resolution of 13.8 micron is used to track the progress of a fixed volume of radio-opaque xenon gas as it proceeds into the sample starting at an initial pressure of 2.8 MPa, dropping to 2.1 MPa by equilibrium (equilibrium state not shown) [1, 2]. Despite a large initial pressure-gradient of 2.8 MPa it takes approximately a week for xenon gas to fill up the sample.
