Study on Wax Deposition Law in Daqing Gulong Shale Oil [PDF]
Daqing Gulong shale oil exhibits elevated wax content, a high wax precipitation point, and a high freezing point. However, its oil density and viscosity are relatively low, making it susceptible to wax crystal precipitation. The risk of pipeline clogging

Analysis of Applicability of Oil Shale for in situ Conversion [PDF]
There are only a few substantial oil shale industries in the world, mainly because of the high cost of oilshale development relative to coal, oil and natural gas. Innovative approaches to oil shale processing could change this situation.

Swinging Shale: Shale Oil, the Global Oil Market, and the Geopolitics of Oil
AbstractIs shale oil “revolutionizing” the global oil market and the geopolitics of oil? If so, how? While two aspects of the shale boom—a new source of supply and a cause for the price collapse in 2014–2015—dominate the conventional wisdom, I argue that the most revolutionary change is the least understood aspect of shale oil—shale oil producers’ rise

Intelligent prediction and integral analysis of shale oil and gas sweet spots
Shale reservoirs are characterized by low porosity and strong anisotropy. Conventional geophysical methods are far from perfect when it comes to the prediction of shale sweet spot locations, and even less reliable when attempting to delineate ...

Shale, which is a fine-grained sedimentary rock, differs in reservoir quality (RQ) and completion quality (CQ) as the result of variations in its mineral and organic-matter compositions. The RQ and CQ directly affect shale gas exploitation.

The Economic and Budgetary Effects of Producing Oil and Natural Gas From Shale [PDF]
[Excerpt] Recent advances in combining two drilling techniques, hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, have allowed access to large deposits of shale resources—that is, crude oil and natural gas trapped in shale and certain other dense rock ...
