The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Technoeconomic evaluation of flared natural gas reduction and energy recovery using gas-to-wire scheme [PDF]
Most mature oil reservoirs or fields tend to perform below expectations, owing to high level of associated gas production. This creates a sub-optimal performance of the oil production surface facilities; increasing oil production specific operating ...

A few geological issues in shale gas exploration and development
Based on several geological problems in the exploration and development of the normal pressure shale gas reservoir, its classification is explored. For that, the relation between the change of organic carbon content, the degree of thermal evolution and ...

Production schedule optimization of gas wells in W shale gas reservoir under controlled pressure difference based on numerical simulation [PDF]
The complex fracture networks are often formed after large-scale hydraulic fracturing in shale gas reservoirs, and the shale gas production rates decrease quickly due to the stress sensitivity.

UK data and analysis for shale gas prospectivity [PDF]
Organic-rich shale contains significant amounts of gas held within fractures and micropores and adsorbed onto organic matter. In the USA shale gas extracted from regionally extensive units such as the Barnett Shale currently accounts for 6% of gas ...
