8.5 The following capillary pressure data are measured for a core plug from the North Sea. Calculate the absolute permeability from the following sample data and capillary pressure. Lithology factor, λ = 0.3, θair–mercury = 140°, σair–mercury = 480 dynes/cm, k = 2.0 mD (Klinkenberg corrected), and ϕ = 38%.
