FUNDAMENTAL HYDRAULIC FRACTURING CONCEPTS FOR POORLY CONSOLIDATED FORMATIONS
(2012)
This dissertation examines -by means of the discrete element method- the mechanisms that govern hydraulic fracturing in poorly consolidated formations. The motivation to take on this project was the widely reported ...
ANALYTICAL AND NUMERICAL ANALYSES OF WELLBORE DRILLED IN ELASTOPLASTIC POROUS FORMATIONS
(2012)
The current wellbore stability analyses for analytical solutions are mostly based on the linear elastic or poroelastic theory. The wellbore is regarded as unstable if the determined elastic/poroelastic stresses anywhere ...

MODELING RELAXATION EFFECTS ON MULTIPHASE FLUID TRANSPORT IN WELLS AND PIPELINES
(2012)
The effect of relaxation in processes involving phase transition during flow of reservoir fluids in pipelines and wells is investigated and formulated. Applications concerning the steady-state flow of producing wells, ...
INTERPRETATION OF PRESSURE TRANSIENT TESTS OF HORIZONTAL WELLS WITH
(2012)
The oil and gas industry has long recognized the importance of understanding the behaviors and trends of pressure and fluid flow dynamics for damaged and stimulated horizontal wells. It has also been recognized that the ...
