In this study, the non-intrusive embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) in combination with the Oda method are employed to characterize natural fracture networks fast and accurately, by identifying the dominant water flow paths through spatial ...

Modeling and simulation of fluid flow in naturally and hydraulically fractured reservoirs using embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) [PDF]
textModeling and simulation of fluid flow in subsurface fractured systems has been steadily a popular topic in petroleum industry. The huge potential hydrocarbon reserve in naturally and hydraulically fractured reservoirs has been a major stimulant for ...

Forest Reorganization Sustains Carbon Sequestration Under Climate Change
Abstract Forests currently mitigate anthropogenic climate change by sequestering substantial amounts of carbon, but future carbon dynamics are expected to vary across the temperate forest biome. Previously cold‐limited ecosystems with low disturbance activity could increase their carbon uptake, while water‐limited ecosystems with high disturbance ...

Production forecasting for oil and gas wells is a decisive element of field‐development planning because it directly guides recovery strategy design, production optimisation and risk management. Conventional methods, including empirical decline‐curve analysis (DCA) and full‐physics numerical simulation, are limited either by their inability to capture ...

Naturally fractured reservoirs hold significant reserves but are highly heterogeneous and are challenging to simulate flow in. Dual Porosity (DP) methods, although widely used, require fine tuning using production data and thus lack predictive capability

ABSTRACT Aim Global change alters many ecological processes simultaneously. Yet, the interactive and compound effects of these changes remain difficult to quantify. Here, we addressed the question of how changes in disturbance and regeneration processes interactively alter temperate forest landscapes across three continents.

ABSTRACT China is rich in coalbed methane resources, especially with significant potential for deep coalbed methane development. As shallow coalbed methane resources gradually deplete, the development of deep coalbed methane has become a research focus.

ABSTRACT Acid gases, containing CO2 and H2S, are by‐products of gas sweetening. Geological sequestration of these gases in naturally fractured reservoirs (NFRs) is a practical method to reduce greenhouse gas emission. An industrially accepted approach to simulate fluid flow in NFRs is the dual‐porosity method; however, this method needs multiple ...

Selecting the number of factors in multi‐variate time series
How many factors are there? It is a critical question that researchers and practitioners deal with when estimating factor models. We proposed a new eigenvalue ratio criterion for the number of factors in static approximate factor models. It considers a pooled squared correlation matrix which is defined as a weighted combination of the main observed ...

Modeling interwell fracture interference and Huff-n-Puff pressure containment in Eagle Ford using EDFM [PDF]
Shale field operators have vested a tremendous interest in optimal spacing of infill wells and further fracture optimization, which ideally should have as little interference with the existing wells as possible. Although proper modeling has been employed
