Revenue Risk of U.S. Tight-Oil Firms [PDF]
American U.S. crude oil prices have dropped significantly of late down to a low of less than $30 a barrel in early 2016. At the same time price volatility has increased and crude in storage has reached record amounts in the U.S. America. Low oil prices in particular pose quite a challenge for the survival of U.S. America’s tight-oil industry.

Three dimensional characterization and quantitative connectivity analysis of micro/nano pore space
Evaluation is performed on pore connectivity of unconventional reservoirs using 3-D FIB-SEM imaging characterization and digital rock techniques. 3-D images are first obtained by FIB-SEM device and then transformed into digital pore structure model ...

Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical Coupling Numerical Simulation on Mechanical Heterogeneity of Coal Rock
Coal rock is a porous medium composed of organic matter and inorganic minerals, and it is very complex and highly heterogeneous. Coal bed methane (CBM) production is a thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupling process in heterogeneous coal rock.
