Dual-porosity approach to wellbore stability in naturally fractured reservoirs.
(2002)
The naturally fractured reservoir was treated as a dual-porosity medium consisting of the primary rock matrix system and the fractured system. Assuming the matrix and fractures in the fractured medium to be 'separate and ...
Horizontal well productivity and wellbore pressure behavior incorporating wellbore hydraulics.
(2001)
This research reviews the equations used to determine horizontal well productivity, the models used for wellbore pressure, and develops a new method to estimate horizontal well productivity incorporating the effects of ...
Physico-chemical behaviors of shale/fluid/solute interaction in geo-environmental and geo-engineering applications.
(2007)
This dissertation examines the rich and complex physical-mechanical behaviors exhibited by shales when exposed to differing solutions over time, temperature, chemical, and stress conditions. Using several unique experimental ...
Theoretical and experimental studies of power-law fluid flow in coiled tubing.

Bottom hole analyses of gas kick (inflow) and gas reservoir characterization while drilling underbalanced.
(2005)
This study presents two new models developed to analyze gas flow between the reservoir and the wellbore while drilling underbalanced. Three drilling operational stages were considered in the analyses. These stages are the ...
