摘要 | An apparatus for handling a geological sample, such as a core from a formation is described. The formation may be a formation of an oil and/or gas well. The apparatus includes a container for receiving the sample and is characterised in that the container comprises at least one wall with a surface which can change its configuration in response to pressure changes. A method of handling a geological sample obtained from a formation is also described and includes providing a container for receiving the sample. The container has a surface which is capable of changing its configuration in response to pressure changes. The sample is introduced into the container, and the configuration of the surface is changed to contact the sample. The container is then withdrawn from the formation. | ||||||
