DENSITY CHANGES AND COMPOSITIONAL PATH DURING CO2 INJECTION
Nguyen, Son (2016-12-16)CO2 EOR has been used for a couple of decades as it improves oil recovery. With more than 50% of original oil in place (OOIP) remaining inside reservoir after primary and secondary stage, more and more companies start to ... -
Impact of Viscous Acid-in-Oil Emulsion Formation on Well Productivity Following Acid Stimulation
Scarborough, Bryan (2016-12-16)Acid stimulation techniques matrix acidizing and acid fracturing are commonly applied in carbonate reservoirs. The goal of such techniques is to increase well productivity by enhancing permeability in the near wellbore ... -
Importance of Capillary Heterogeneity in Developing a Representative Reservoir Model for Shales with Complex Fractures
Gong, Yiwen (2016-12-16)Our advancement in hydraulic fracturing has enabled us to produce shale formations economically. The formation stimulation is successful when the effective transport properties of the formation is improved significantly, ... -
IMPORTANCE OF PORE SIZE FOR EFFECTIVE DENSITY OF SHALE GAS
Curtin, James III (2017-05-12)The proper development of any natural gas reservoir depends on knowing several key factors; perhaps the most important of these factors is the volume of gas-in-place of a reservoir at a given pressure. Gas-in-place ... -
INTEGRATING EFFECTS OF GEOMECHANICS, PHASE BEHAVIOR UNDER CONFINEMENT AND PERMEABLITY AS A FUNCTION OF PORE SIZE ON GAS AND CONDENSATE PRODUCTION FROM UNCONVENTIONAL RESOURCES
Mask, Gene (2016-05-13)Modeling production in a naturally fractured shale gas condensate reservoir that has been stimulated in commercial simulators faces many challenges. Phase behavior and geomechanics cannot be easily incorporated and have ... -
Modeling Adsorption in Shale
Zapata Arboleda, Yuliana Maria (2016-12-16)The existing conventional methods to characterize reservoir storage properties face challenges in shale formations due to their fine grained texture, low porosity, and low permeability. An integrated analysis of standard ...
