Effects of pore size and pore connectivity on trapped gas saturation
Trapped or residual air (or gas) is known to affect the multiphase hydraulic properties of both soils and rocks. Trapped air is known to impact many vadose zone hydrologic applications such as infiltration and flow in the capillary fringe, but is also a ...

Influencing factors for breakthrough pressure of carbonate caprocks
In addition to traditional gypsum salt rocks and shale rocks, many studies have confirmed that carbonate rocks also work as oil and gas seals. Breakthrough pressure is a characteristic parameter for the evaluation of the sealing ability of cap rocks ...

New knowledge of hydrocarbon generating theory of organic matter in Chinese marine carbonates
The marine carbonates of the Tarim Basin are taken to study the relationship between source rock and oil and gas reservoirs and discuss the possibility and mechanisms of mature and low-TOC (less than 0.5%) marine carbonates being source rock. By studying
