Mechanical properties of class H cement at room and elevated temperatures and the effect of gilsonite and microcellulose on its mechanical properties
(2022-12-16)
With an increase in global energy demands, the importance of well integrity and the oilfield cements has become more important than ever as it guarantees the continuous supply of fossil fuel to fulfill the requirement of ...
Study of CO2 Solubility in Brine and Mineralization in Mafic Basaltic Formations
(2023-05)
A huge amount of CO2 emissions should be mitigated for environmental benefits and to reach net zero by 2050. One method to mitigate these emissions is permanent CO2 sequestration through mineralization. CO2 can be mineralized ...
Stability of aqueous foams at high pressure and the impact of contaminants
(2021-12-18)
Foam is a mixture of gas bubbles dispersed in a continuous liquid phase that exhibits some form of structure. Foam is used in various oil and gas industry operations such as drilling, cementing, and fracking. The properties ...
Experimental Investigation of Molecular Hydrogen Effect on Cement Related to Well Integrity for Underground Hydrogen Storage
(2022)
Underground Hydrogen Storage (UHS) in the subsurface is an alternative to overcome limitations associated with a fluctuating production of renewable energy sources. The excess energy produced can be converted to hydrogen ...
A data-driven approach for the evaluation of seismicity risks associated with CO2 injection
(2022)
This work examined the application of Bayes’ theorem in evaluating the risk of induced seismicity associated with CO2 sequestration in the Arbuckle Group, which extends across the southern Mid-Continent of the US. Geological ...
Evaluation of Huff-n-Puff EOR in Various Liquid Rich Shales
(2020-12-18)
Cyclical gas injection Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) known as “Huff-n-Puff” (HnP) has experienced renewed interest since the EOG success in the Eagle Ford shale play. HnP consists of injecting CO2 or a hydrocarbon solvent ...
Effects of fibers and pipe rotation on horizontal well cleanout with polymeric fluids
(2022)
Rock cuttings deposition is a problem commonly faced during drilling, completion, and
intervention activities. Using polymer-based fluids is the to-go technique to improve horizontal
hole cleaning. However, the rheological ...
Rapid elemental analysis using X-ray fluorescence and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy and their applications in the Mississippian Meramec, Anadarko Basin, Oklahoma
(2020)
X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) and Laser Induced Breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) are rapid elemental analysis techniques for rock cores and cuttings. Elemental analysis is useful in understanding geochemical, mineralogical, ...
DEEP LEARNING FOR SHALE SEM IMAGE ANALYSIS
(2020)
The microstructure of unconventional reservoir rocks not only controls the storage and transport of hydrocarbons but also controls the mechanical properties of the shale. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) has been valuable ...
Experimental Investigation of a Novel Working Fluid for Heat Extraction In Geothermal Wells
(2023-05-13)
The exponential increase in the global atmospheric carbon dioxide has spurred research interest in the exploration and maximization of renewable energy exploits. This interest has in turn inspired the growth of the geothermal ...
