Geochemical Modelling of the Fracturing Fluid Transport in Shale Reservoirs

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Field operations report that at least half of the fracturing fluid used in shale reservoirs is trapped. These trapped fluids can trigger various geochemical interactions. However, the impact of these interactions on well performance is still elusive.

Gibbs energy minimization thermodynamics for CO2 capture by aqueous amines: Conservation laws, concentration variables, and parameter consistency

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
We clarify how Gibbs‐energy‐minimization models for aqueous‐amine CO2 capture fail when conservation constraints and concentration conventions are inconsistent. Exact standard‐state conversions and Reaktoro case studies show that P(CO2)‐loading fits can mask non‐unique parameters and wrong speciation, motivating complete water‐inclusive formulations ...

Hydrogeochemical and salinity appraisal of surficial lens of freshwater aquifer along Lagos coastal belt, South West, Nigeria

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
In order to determine the hydrogeochemical processes and salinity status of the surficial lens of freshwater aquifer in the Lagos coastal basin, physicochemical parameters and hydrogeochemical tools were employed in this study.

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Geochemical characterization and paleo-burial history modelling of unconventional resources: A case study from the Kimmeridge Clay Formation (KCF) in the UK North Sea

open access: yesUnconventional Resources
For several decades the UK North Sea has been a prolific oil and gas province, with numerous conventional oil and gas discoveries sourced predominantly by the Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous Kimmeridge Clay Formation (KCF).

Phosphorous runoff risk assessment and its potential management using wollastonite according to geochemical modeling

open access: yesOpen Agriculture, 2019
Loss of phosphorus from agricultural land through water runoff causes serious detrimental effects on the environment and on water quality. Phosphorous runoff from excessive use of fertilizers can cause algal blooms to grow in nearby water systems ...

Research progress and current status of dynamic wave propagation characteristics in rock mass: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the velocity–dispersion–attenuation coupling mechanisms of wave propagation in rock masses, compares six representative models, and reveals how pressure, temperature, mineral composition, and anisotropy jointly control dynamic responses in complex geological media.

Trace element mobility during CO2 storage: application of reactive transport modelling [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
The geologic storage of CO2 carries both physical and chemical risks to the environment. In order to reduce those risks, it is necessary to provide predictive capabilities for impacts so that strategies can be developed to monitor, identify and mitigate ...

Combining paleoecology and modeling to explore cascading disturbances in forest ecosystems

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Climate‐induced cascading disturbance interactions pose a major challenge to the sustainable provision of forest ecosystem services to society. Developing a deeper understanding and enhanced capacity to simulate these interactions is essential for identifying disturbance‐induced tipping points in forest ecosystems, and for improving management in ...
