Reservoir Modeling and Production Evaluation in Shale-Gas Reservoirs

International Petroleum Technology Conference, 2009
Abstract This paper examines issues with forecasting and evaluating production from unconventional gas reservoirs, such as the Barnett Shale. How can reservoirs be commercial with matrix permeability measured not in milli-Darcy or even micro-Darcy (10-3 mD), but as low as 10–100 nano-Darcy (10-6 mD)?

Compositional simulation of fractured shale reservoir with distribution of nanopores using coupled multi-porosity and EDFM method

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019
Shale reservoir contains highly heterogenous pore systems due to the wide-range distributions of nanopores in shale matrix and hydraulic/natural fractures.

Relationships among composition, porosity and permeability of Longmaxi Shale reservoir in the Weiyuan Block, Sichuan Basin, China

Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2019
Shale composition might influence the petrophysical properties of shale reservoirs. The relationships among composition, porosity and permeability of Longmaxi Shale in Weiyuan area, Sichuan Basin, China, were systematically investigated by the ...

Fractured Shale Reservoirs of California

AAPG Bulletin, 1953
ABSTRACT In California there are two regions in which fractured sedimentary rocks form important oil reservoirs. They are the Santa Maria Coastal district and the southwestern part of the San Joaquin Valley. This type of reservoir rock is limited essentially to fractured chert and siliceous shale of upper Miocene age.

DAS observations and modeling of perforation-induced guided waves in a shale reservoir

The Leading Edge, 2019
Perforation shots can be recorded by downhole distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) arrays. In this study, we demonstrate that guided waves induced by perforation shots propagate in a low-velocity shale reservoir layer.

Comparative analysis of shale reservoir characteristics in the Wufeng-Longmaxi (O3w-S1l) and Niutitang (Є1n) Formations: A case study of wells JY1 and TX1 in the southeastern Sichuan Basin and its neighboring areas, southwestern China

Interpretation, 2018
A systematic comparative analysis of shale reservoir characteristics of the Wufeng-Longmaxi (O3 w-S1 l) and Niutitang (Є1 n) Formations in southeastern Sichuan Basin and its neighboring areas was conducted with respect to mineralogy, organic geochemistry,

Impediments to Refracturing Success in Shale Reservoirs

SPE Middle East Oil & Gas Show and Conference, 2021
Abstract Stimulations in early horizontal wells in most shale plays are characterized by few and widely spaced perforation clusters, and low amounts of injected fracturing fluid and proppant. Low recovery from these wells has motivated refracturing although outcomes have been interpreted to range from successful to minimal impact based ...

Shale gas reservoir characterization workflows

SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts 2012, 2012
Summary As shale gas resources have emerged as a viable energy source, their characterization has gained significance. The organic content in these shales which are measured by their TOC ratings, influence the compressional and shear velocities as well as the density and anisotropy in these formations.
