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.

Tomography of atomic number and density of materials using dual-energy imaging and the Alvarez and Macovski attenuation model [PDF]
, 2016 Dual-energy computed tomography and the Alvarez and Macovski [Phys. Med. Biol. 21, 733 (1976)] transmitted intensity (AMTI) model were used in this study to estimate the maps of density (ρ) and atomic number (Z) of mineralogical samples.

Geophysical Research Progress On Tight Sandstone Reservoir In Sulige Gas Field
Improved Oil and Gas Recovery, 2020 The tight sandstone reservoir in the cooperation block of Sulige gas field is characterized by thin gas-bearing sand, large variation laterally, and strong heterogeneity. Due to the complex surface conditions, and particularly the thick weathered zone, the 3D seismic data presented limited frequency bandwidth.

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This work reveals the “C‐Y,” double “Y,” “π,” and “Y” fracture modes of thick, hard strata and their progressive breaking process (O‐F‐R/S mode), providing a theoretical basis for controlling strong ground pressure in deep mining. ABSTRACT In response to the dynamic hazards caused by the fracture of thick‐hard strata in deep mining, this study ...
