Permeability and petrophysical properties of 30 natural mudstones

We present permeability and other petrophysical data (including pore size distribution, porosity, particle size distribution, grain density, specific surface area, total carbon content, organic carbon content, and sulphur content) for 30 deeply buried mudstones. Permeabilities were measured at different effective consolidation stresses ranging from 2.5 to 60 MPa with a 30,000 mg L −1 NaCl solution. Samples represent a wide spectrum of mudstone...
