Nanoporous Gas Transport in Shale Gas Reservoirs

International Journal on Engineering, Science and Technology, 2022
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.

The prediction of shale gas well production rate based on grey system theory dynamic model GM(1, N)

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020
The prediction of production volumes from shale gas wells is important in reservoir development. The physical parameters of a reservoir are uncertain and complex, and therefore, it is very difficult to predict the production capability of a shale gas ...

Oil shale, shale oil, shale gas and non-conventional hydrocarbons [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
In recent years there has been a world “revolution” in the field of unconventional hydrocarbon reserves, which goes by the name of “shale gas”, gas contained inside clay sediments micropores. Shale gas finds particular development in the United States, which are now independent of imports and see a price reduction to less than one third of that in ...

A compositional model for CO2 flooding including CO2 equilibria between water and oil using the Peng–Robinson equation of state with the Wong–Sandler mixing rule

Petroleum Science, 2019
This paper presents a three-dimensional, three-phase compositional model considering CO2 phase equilibrium between water and oil. In this model, CO2 is mutually soluble in aqueous and hydrocarbon phases, while other components, except water, exist in ...
