Present-day stress orientations and tectonic provinces of the NW Borneo collisional margin [PDF]
Extent: 15p.Borehole failure observed on image and dipmeter logs from 55 petroleum wells across the NW Borneo collisional margin were used to determine maximum horizontal stress (σH) orientations; combined with seismic and outcrop data, they define seven

Numerical Study on Hydraulic Fracture Propagation in a Layered Continental Shale Reservoir
The distribution of beddings varies greatly in shale reservoirs. The influence of beddings on hydraulic fracture propagation has often been studied using simplified geological models, i.e., uniformly distributed bedding models.

High-frequency cyclicity in the Mediterranean Messinian evaporites: evidence for solar-lunar climate forcing [PDF]
The deposition of varved sedimentary sequences is usually controlled by climate conditions. The study of two Late Miocene evaporite successions (one halite and the other gypsum) consisting of annual varves has been carried out to reconstruct the ...

Numerical Simulation of Hydraulic Fracturing and Penetration Law in Continental Shale Reservoirs
The vertical heterogeneity of continental shale reservoirs is strong, the difference between lithology and stress between layers is large, the weak interface between layers develops, and the hydraulic fracture penetration and expansion are difficult ...

There are significant lithological and stress differences between continental shale layers, posing challenges for hydraulic fractures (HFs) to propagate through the formations, leading to weak fracture effects. To address this, this article adopts the finite element and cohesive force element methods to formulate a three-dimensional numerical model for

Study on the mechanism of anisotropic wellbore instability in continental shale in Songliao Basin
Wellbore instability is frequently encountered in the process of shale oil drilling. Due to the anisotropic strength characteristics of shale, most conventional models are not suitable for wellbore stability analysis in layered formation.

Study on Wax Deposition Law in Daqing Gulong Shale Oil [PDF]
Daqing Gulong shale oil exhibits elevated wax content, a high wax precipitation point, and a high freezing point. However, its oil density and viscosity are relatively low, making it susceptible to wax crystal precipitation. The risk of pipeline clogging
