RNase H enables efficient repair of R-loop induced DNA damage. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
R-loops, three-stranded structures that form when transcripts hybridize to chromosomal DNA, are potent agents of genome instability. This instability has been explained by the ability of R-loops to induce DNA damage. Here, we show that persistent R-loops

Characteristics of Clay-Abundant Shale Formations: Use of CO2 for Production Enhancement

open access: yesEnergies, 2017
Clay-abundant shale formations are quite common worldwide shale plays. This particular type of shale play has unique physico-chemical characteristics and therefore responds uniquely to the gas storage and production process.

Minimizing Formation Damage in Drilling Operations: A Critical Point for Optimizing Productivity in Sandstone Reservoirs Intercalated with Clay

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The recovery of oil and gas from underground reservoirs has a pervasive impact on petroleum-producing companies’ financial strength. A significant cause of the low recovery is the plugging of reservoir rocks’ interconnected pores and associated ...

Geochemical Investigation of CO2 Injection in Oil and Gas Reservoirs of Middle East to Estimate the Formation Damage and Related Oil Recovery

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The injection performance of carbon dioxide (CO2) for oil recovery depends upon its injection capability and the actual injection rate. The CO2–rock–water interaction could cause severe formation damage by plugging the reservoir pores and reducing the ...

Experimental Study on Preventing Formation Damage Due to Clay Swelling Caused by Water Based Drilling Fluid Using Aluminum Ion Based Clay Inhibitor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Science and Technology, 2021
Formation damage is an unfavorable challenge that occurs during drilling. The present study reports the applicability of aluminum complex (AC, the combination between Al ion of aluminum sulfate (AS) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic (EDTA)) as a permanent ...

Time evolution of dislocation formation in ion implanted silicon [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Annealing of crystal damage from ion implantation may result in dislocation formation. Here we study the nucleation, growth, and annihilation of such dislocations during rapid thermal anneals of Si, Ge, As, and In implanted Si.

Disaggregation and discretization methods for formation damage estimation in oil and gas fields: an overview

open access: yesDyna, 2020
Formation damage could potentially impede production and injection operations. Hence, characterization and discretization processes of formation damage should be connected to quantification and disaggregation techniques, relying on characterization ...
