TOWARDS A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MOLECULAR FORCE AND HYDROCARBON RECOVERY
(2019-08-01)
The optimization of hydrocarbon recovery is the core of petroleum engineering. Experiments are always the go-to approach to reveal mysterious observations and verify new theories. However, recent advances on our understanding ...
FUNDAMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF PRE-EXISTING FRACTURE SLIP AND PROPAGATION IN RESERVOIR STIMULATION
(2019-12)
The deformation behavior and transport properties of subsurface reservoir rock masses are highly influenced by the existence of natural fractures. Shear reactivation of pre-existing fractures by pressurized fluid injection ...
NUMERICAL MODELING AND DIAGNOSTICS OF INTER- AND INTRA-WELL INTERFERENCE IN TIGHT OIL RESERVOIRS: TOWARDS OPTIMAL WELL SPACING DECISIONS
(2019)
The main objective of this dissertation is to provide sound understanding and mitigation solutions to the perplexing problem of well interference and its implications on completions design, well-spacing decisions, and ...
