Multiscale Modeling of Nanoparticles Transport, Aggregation, and In Situ Gelation in Porous Media
(2017)
Nanoparticle applications in the petroleum industry have grown recently especially in EOR and well stimulation. Transport of nanoparticles in porous media involves different interaction mechanisms either between nanoparticles ...
ANISOTROPIC POROCHEMOELECTROELASTIC SOLUTIONS FOR APPLICATIONS IN FIELD OPERATIONS AND LABORATORY CHARACTERIZATION OF SHALE
(2013)
In this study, the porochemoelectroelastic formulation is explained in details and fully expanded to capture the well known anisotropic nature of shale. The formulation is then applied to derive the analytical solutions ...
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 ...
A MICROSCOPIC CHARACTERIZATION OF WETTABILITY IN SHALE KEROGEN WITH VARYING MATURITY LEVELS AND ITS ROLE IN GOVERNING FLUID DISTRIBUTION
(2014-12)
Kerogen is defined as the insoluble macromolecular organic matter in sedimentary rocks and is a complex mixture of organic chemical compounds. The process of kerogen maturation is accompanied by the loss of functionalized ...
THE STUDIES OF CONFINED FLUID PHASE BEHAVIOR IN SHALE RESOURCES
(2018-05-11)
Fluid phase behavior in porous media is governed by not only fluid-fluid interactions but also fluid-wall interactions. In shale formations, a large amount of hydrocarbon fluid is stored within the organic matters where ...
