Application of Tiab's Direct Synthesis technique to multi-layer naturally fractured reservoirs.
(2000)
Next, the problem of the pressure behavior of a well crossed by a uniform-flux and infinite-conductivity vertical fracture and located in a single-layer and multilayered bounded square reservoir with a double porosity ...
Numerical simulation of multiphase fluid flow in naturally fractured reservoirs.
(1983)
A new mathematical flow model is derived for characterizing the multiphase fluid flow phenomenon in naturally fractured reservoirs. This model treats the reservoir as a double porosity medium consisting of a heterogeneous, ...
An experimental investigation on the use of a caustic-nitrogen injection process in a waterflooded oil reservoir.
(1982)
The experimental results indicated that the recovery of the residual oil is mainly dominated by the Jamin Effect, and the selective plugging of the flooded pore paths provides the necessary mechanism to overcome the Jamin ...
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION, CORRELATION, AND DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS OF NEAR-WELLBORE FORMATION TREATMENT BY GEL PARTICLES AND PARTICLE-GEL SYSTEM
(2014-12)
Reservoir permeability heterogeneity with high permeability zones can create many problems in petroleum reservoirs such as lost circulation of drilling fluids and high water production in hydrocarbon producing wells. These ...
Viscoelastic measurements of fracturing fluids for proppant transport application.
(2001)
One of the primary functions of a fracturing fluid is to transport and distribute proppant through a fracture and to keep the particles suspended till reservoir closes on the fracture. The proppant when suspended and ...
Experimental and numerical simulation study of microbial enhanced oil recovery using bio-surfactants.
(2005)
A 2-phase, 10-component microbial enhanced oil recovery numerical simulator was modified to include reservoir salinity and facilitate surfactant and polymer injection. The effects of reservoir brine salinity and divalent ...
Development and properties of a self-bursting pellet as agglomerated from coal fines by use of an organic binder.
(1980)
In all aspects of the mining, processing, and handling of coal, fine particles are generated that are in many cases wasted. These fines can be agglomerated into strong and durable pellets by use of an organic binder which ...
Three-Dimensional FEM Modeling of Geothermal Reservoir Stimulation Using Stochastic Fracture Networks and Continuum Damage Mechanics
(2014-08)
Unconventional reservoirs are gaining more and more attention in recently years. Pore pressure and temperature variations in unconventional reservoirs during stimulation are of great importance in reservoir exploration and ...
Development of a three-segment hydraulic model for cuttings transport in horizontal and deviated wells.
(2001)
This study describes the model development for each segment, the combination of each model, the solution, and the simulation results of the combined three-segment model. To ensure a comprehensive understanding of the effects ...
Hydraulic fracturing of poorly consolidated formations: Considerations on rock properties and failure mechanisms.
(2005)
This dissertation addresses the issue of hydraulic fracturing stimulation of poorly consolidated formations. First, a complete review about the mechanical properties of such formations was performed. Typical ranges of ...
