Evaluation of fracturing fluid imbibition and water blocking behavior in unconventional reservoir
Imbibition is believed to be beneficial to the production. However, the load recovery is low, and water blocking can have a marked impact on the production This study aims to evaluate imbibition and water blocking behavior in tight reservoir, and reveal ...

Fracturing fluid imbibition impact on gas-water two phase flow in shale fracture-matrix system
A large amount of fracturing fluid in hydraulic fracturing is imbibed into the shale fracture/matrix, which leads to significant uncertainty in gas recovery evaluation. The mechanism of imbibition impact on the gas–water flow is not well understood.

Imbibition Retention in the Process of Fluid Replacement in Tight Sandstone Reservoir
“Fracture network stimulation and oil-water infiltration and replacement” are recent attempts to effectively produce oil from tight reservoirs. On the one hand, the formation can be fractured by the fracturing fluid, which can carry proppant into ...

Improvement and effectiveness analysis of dynamic/static imbibition experiments. [PDF]
In low-permeability fractured reservoirs, there is a generalized fluid displacement between the replacement fluid in the fracture and the matrix crude oil. This imbibition behavior plays a crucial role in the development of this type of reservoir.

Capillary Imbibition of Binary Fluid Mixtures in Nanochannels [PDF]
Many-body Dissipative Particle Dynamics (MDPD) simulations of binary fluid mixtures imbibing cylindrical nanochannels reveal a strong segregation of fluids differing in their affinities to the pore walls. Surprisingly, the imbibition front furthest into the channel is highly enriched in the fluid with the lower affinity for the walls, i.e., the fluid ...

A Critical Review of Osmosis-Associated Imbibition in Unconventional Formations
In petroleum engineering, imbibition is one of the most important elements for the hydraulic fracturing and water flooding processes, when extraneous fluids are introduced to the reservoir.

Characterizing Dissipation in Fluid-Fluid Displacement Using Constant-Rate Spontaneous Imbibition [PDF]
When one fluid displaces another in a confined environment, some energy is dissipated in the fluid bulk and the rest is dissipated near the contact line. Here we study the relative strengths of these two sources of dissipation with a novel experimental setup: constant-rate spontaneous imbibition experiments, achieved by introducing a viscous oil slug ...

“Fracturing network+imbibition oil production” is a new attempt to effectively develop low-permeability tight reservoirs. Fracturing fluid is not only a carrier for sand carrying but also a tool in the process of imbibition.

Imbibition and flowback of fracturing fluid usually occur in the shale matrix after hydraulic fracturing, which significantly impacts shale gas production and environmental protection. The rocks of deep shale gas reservoirs are under high-temperature and
