GEOMECHANICAL RESERVOIR CHARACTERIAZATION AND APPLICATIONS
(2017-05-12)
The Mechanical Earth Model (MEM) is gaining attention in the oil and gas industry recently since utilizing horizontal well and multistage fracturing technologies requires understanding of the reservoir geomechanical ...
Estimation of Relative Permeability in Nanoporous Samples and Modeling of Pressure Transient Response in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs
(2017-12-15)
Relative permeability and irreducible saturations of organic-rich shale samples from various formations from different maturity windows are estimated by processing the low-pressure nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements. ...
Modeling Microemulsion Phase Behavior With Consideration of Phase Partitioning of Co-Solvent
(2017-05-12)
Co-solvents are widely used to improve chemical flooding formulations design, but partitioning of co-solvent within phases has great impacts on microemulsion phase behavior. Microemulsion phase behavior plays a key role ...
AN INVESTIGATION OF EXPERIMENTAL PARAMETERS REQUIRED TO STUDY HYDROCARBON PHASE BEHAVIOR UNDER CONSTANT VOLUME AND CONSTANT COMPOSITION CONDITIONS
(2016)
Accurate fluid phase behavior evaluation is essential for reservoir engineers to predict the type of reservoir, oil and gas in place, and develop proper production strategies. The change in phase behavior and phase equilibrium ...
numerical study on casing integrity during hydraulic fracturing shale formation
(2019)
Due to complex sedimentation environment, shale formations are usually characterized as highly heterogeneous and anisotropic in in-situ stresses. The injection process for reservoir stimulation changes the local in-situ ...
Stochastic Determination of Formation Parting Pressure for Water Injection Well
(2017-12)
Water injection is arguably the most widely used technology in maintaining reservoir pressure and enhanced oil recovery. However, the water injectivity always declines as water injection process continuing due to the ...
ROCK TYPING IN ORGANIC SHALES: EAGLE FORD, WOODFORD, BARNETT AND WOLFCAMP FORMATIONS
(2017-05-12)
Shales are the most common sedimentary rocks found on earth. Most US shale plays are spatially extensive with regions of different maturity and varying prospects. With increasing understanding of the heterogeneity, ...
INTERPRETATION OF INTER-WELL CHEMICAL TRACER TEST
(2017)
For the first time, this thesis presents a new approach to characterize reservoir layering and cross flow between layers using Inter-Well Chemical Tracer Test (ICTT). ICTT is a well-known reliable test for reservoir ...
Production Sustainability of Shale Plays
(2017-05-12)
Shale reservoirs are commonly observed to have high initial flow rates followed by the occurrence of rapid declines in these rates early in their productive lives. There is, therefore, a need for terminology which describes ...
HYDRAULIC FORCE MODELING FOR RADIAL JET DRILLING
(2018)
Radial jet drilling (RJD) is a proven stimulation method to increase reservoir contact quickly and affordably while utilizing existing infrastructure and wellbores. RJD exploits a niche within the industry by targeting ...
