The shale gas revolution and its possible impact on the short term future of the energy transition

, 2022
openIn questa breve relazione finale, si vuole focalizzare l’attenzione sulle fonti “non convenzionali” di gas naturale, ossia lo shale gas, e sulle modalità con cui l’aumentata disponibilità di questo combustibile può influenzare la transizione ...

The impact of forced closure on proppant distribution of hydraulic fracturing in shale formations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Research findings demonstrate that implementing forced closure within shale formations can remarkably mitigate proppant settlement, concurrently increasing the effective propped surface area from 29.74% to 38.68%. Abstract Forced closure is widely used in conventional oil and gas reservoirs to promote uniform proppant placement.

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 ...

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

Deep 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.

Implications of the geochemical characteristics of post-fracturing flowback fluids for shale gas exploration and exploitation

Energy Geoscience
Previous studies on post-fracturing flowback fluids focus primarily on their cleaning and discharge, high salinity sources, and damage to gas reservoirs.

Shale Gas: History of Development

, 2016
The history of shale gas production goes back more than two centuries. The production of this hydrocarbon resource was pioneered by the USA that accumulated considerable experience in development of the shale gas plays. The shale gas play development pushed further the development of new technologies that ensured considerable increase of this ...

Evaluation of shale oil and gas plays - Part I: Shale reservoir property modelling of the North Sea Kimmeridge Clay Formation [PDF]

The Kimmeridge Clay Formation (KCF) forms the source rock for most conventional hydrocarbon accumulations within the UK North Sea. However, only a few previous studies have analyzed the potential of the KCF for unconventional resources (i.e., shale oil ...
