Optical Detection of Oil Bearing in Reservoir Rock: Terahertz Spectroscopy Investigation

To accurately reflect the physical properties of the reservoir, it is necessary to use a variety of techniques to evaluate the reservoir, due to the complexity of the reservoir. In this paper, the oil is dripped into the rock to simulate the reservoir, and the transmission properties of the terahert...
