The computed tomography (CT) facilities and the Multi-Sensor Core Logger (MSCL) at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Morgantown, West Virginia were used to characterize core of the Salina Formation from a vertical well (Brine Well #36) from Marshall County, West Virginia at a depth of 6,555.6 to 6,719.5 ft. The primary impetus of this work is a collaboration between West Virginia Geological and Economic Survey (WVGES) and NETL to characterize core from multiple wells to better understand the key formations in West Virginia. As part of this effort, bulk scans of core were obtained from the Brine Well #36, provided by the WVGES. This report, and the associated scans generated, provide detailed datasets not typically available for researchers to analyze.
