    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed. The methods may include determining a first sequence of permeabilities by subjecting a rock sample to a first sequence of confining stress, axial stress, pore pressure (CSASPP) triplets and determining a first rock parameter using the first sequence of permeabilities, the first sequence of CSASPP triplets, and a first permeability model. The methods may further include determining a second sequence of permeabilities by subjecting the rock sample to a second sequence of CSASPP triplets and determining a second rock parameter using the second sequence of permeabilities, the second sequence of CSASPP triplets, and the first permeability model. The method may still further include determining an in situ permeability for an in situ rock based on an initial permeability, a second stress sensitivity parameter, a first stress sensitivity parameter, a confining stress value, axial stress values, a pore pressure value, and a second permeability model.

    Abstract: A method and system for determining a mass of an absorbed gas and a mass of a pore gas in a sample using NMR spectroscopy is provided. The method includes acquiring a baseline NMR spectrum of a pressure cell containing the sample, saturating the sample with a gas, acquiring a saturated NMR spectrum and determining a differential NMR spectrum of the sample by subtracting the baseline NMR spectrum from the saturated NMR spectrum. The method also includes separating the differential NMR spectrum into an absorbed gas NMR spectrum to determine an absorbed gas NMR signal and a pore gas NMR spectrum to determine a pore gas NMR signal by performing a spectral deconvolution. The method further includes acquiring a normalization NMR spectrum of the pressure cell containing a gas to determine a gas calibration NMR signal and determining the mass of the absorbed gas and pore gas.
