3D Reservoir Simulation of a Hydraulically Fractured Vertical Gas Well Using the Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) [PDF]
According to the 2017 outlook on energy conducted by the EIA, the production of natural gas from shale reservoirs is expected to increase by 2040. This increase is dependent on multiple factors like technology, resources, and market conditions.

Macroscale Gas–Water Two‐Phase Transport Simulation in Shales considering Nanomicroscale Effects
As an effective approach to evaluate shale gas production, macroscale numerical simulations have been conducted; however, multiscale storage space and complex gas–water two‐phase transport mechanisms are not systematically considered. To deal with this, a rigorous cross‐scale gas–water two‐phase transport simulation method that considers the pore, core,

Development of an efficient embedded discrete fracture model for 3D compositional reservoir simulation in fractured reservoirs [PDF]
textNaturally fractured reservoirs (NFRs) hold a significant amount of the world's hydrocarbon reserves. Compared to conventional reservoirs, NFRs exhibit a higher degree of heterogeneity and complexity created by fractures.

Numerical Simulation Study on Wormhole Propagation Morphology in Fractured Carbonate Rocks during Acidizing [PDF]
Carbonate reservoirs are key targets for global oil and gas exploration, accounting for more than 50% of both reserves and production. However, due to the widespread existence of fractures, vugs, and strong heterogeneity in these reservoirs, they are ...
