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 ...
Chemoporoelastic solution of transversely isotropic saturated porous media.
(2004)
The solution is closed-form in the Laplace domain; and is then inverted to the time domain by using Stehfest's (1970) algorithm. This solution simulates the chemoporoelastic process triggered by drilling a borehole in ...
Geomechanical modeling of reservoir using finite element method
(2020)
The importance of refracturing horizontal wells in low permeability reservoirs is well recognized in the oil and gas industry. As a result of production from a propped open fracture, the stress changes in the reservoir. ...
Dual-Porosity and Dual-Permeability Poromechanics Solutions for Problems in Laboratory and Field Applications
(2010)
In this work, a study of anisotropic dual-porosity and dual-permeability poromechanics is presented through generalized analytical solutions for selected problems in laboratory and field applications. For example, the ...
History Matching of 3D Reservoir Models with Complex Non-Gaussian Distributions of the Model Parameters
(2010)
Although the first application of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) as a technique for sequential assimilation of noisy measurements was to a numerical weather prediction problem, remarkable research progress has been made ...
Multiple-Porosity and Multiple-Permeability Poroelasticity
(2013)
Since the advent of basic ideas in the theory of fluid seepage in fissured porous media, much effort has been placed in engineering and science departments of various disciplines in trying to foster the concept of dual-porosity ...
ScCO2-Fluids-Rock Interactions in Nanoporous Media: Applications in Enhanced Oil Recovery and Carbon Geostorage
(2023-12-15)
A global effort to reduce atmospheric CO2 levels and mitigate global warming is ongoing. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) and enhanced oil recovery (EOR) are pivotal technologies for achieving net-zero emissions, further ...
STUDY OF FLUID DYNAMICS EFFECTS FOR LOSS OF WELL CONTROL INCIDENTS IN SUBSEA WELLS
(2019-05-10)
The safety of well operations has become the focal point of the research paradigm since the Deepwater Horizon incident. The risks of wellbore blowouts cannot be neglected in any drilling operation, which makes the discharge ...
Acoustic anisotropy measurements and calibration of the non-hydrostatic in-situ stresses in a wellbore.
(2007)
The comparison of the static and dynamic stress-strain data (measured from borehole strain gages and velocities) indicates that velocities have to be calibrated according to the rock type to take into account the specific ...
Multiscale modeling of fractured reservoir stimulation and induced seismicity
(2020-12-18)
Natural fractures and fracture networks characteristics significantly influence the success of reservoir stimulations. Subsurface and surface investigations consider various geophysical techniques to probe and measure ...
