3D porosity and mineralogy characterization in tight gas sandstones

open access: yesThe Leading Edge, 2010
Tight gas reservoirs exhibit storage and flow characteristics that are intimately tied to depositional and diagenetic processes. As a result, exploitation of these resources requires a comprehensive reservoir description and characterization program to identify properties which control production.

Multiple injection techniques to stimulate complex fracture networks in coal reservoirs: A case study on gas disaster reduction of subsurface coal mine in southwest China

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
An experimental device for physical simulation of hydraulic fracturing, comprising: a load‐bearing mechanism with multiple interconnected plates that collectively form an sample chamber; a load‐generating mechanisms, with multiple load‐generating mechanisms arranged within the experimental chamber.

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Geology of the Transverse Range Province, Southern California [PDF]

open access: yes, 1954
The Transverse Range province of southern California is an elongate geomorphic and structural unit that trends essentially east-west across parts of Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties (pl. 4).

Pore Structure and Limit Pressure of Gas Slippage Effect in Tight Sandstone [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Gas slip effect is an important mechanism that the gas flow is different from liquid flow in porous media. It is generally considered that the lower the permeability in porous media is, the more severe slip effect of gas flow will be. We design and then carry out experiments with the increase of backpressure at the outlet of the core samples based on ...

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

open access: yesDeep 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.

Mechanistic insights across curing regimes for enzymatic and biopolymer‐optimized reinforcement in rock masses

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study examines the effects of curing temperature on the mechanical behavior of underground rock masses treated with enzyme‐induced calcite precipitation (EICP) and an innovative biopolymer‐modified EICP (BP‐EICP). Abstract Biocementation is an innovative and sustainable technique for reinforcing weak and weathered rock masses in natural and ...
