What prospects for shale gas in Asia? Case of shale gas in China
Abstract The issues of energy and the environment are one of the main challenges for humanity today. Global growth in energy demand is facing environmental concerns, especially in fast-growing regions such as Asia. Transferring traditional energy sources such as coal, oil, to cleaner energy sources and renewables is an inevitable trend ...

Nanoporous Gas Transport in Shale Gas Reservoirs
In more conventional gas reservoirs, gas flow is simple, uncomplicated, and described by simple flux pressure drop expressions. In shale reservoirs however, this relationship takes the form of a more complex and multiscale flow process involving special flow mechanisms.
