Salt Precipitation‐Driven Rock Failure Mode Transition During Geological CO2 Sequestration
Abstract Salt precipitation has emerged as a critical factor affecting injectivity, reservoir stability, and the potential to trigger near‐wellbore microseismic activity during geological CO2 sequestration. While previous studies have primarily focused on the brine acidification induced by CO2 injection, triggering geochemical reactions in carbonate ...

Abstract Salt's inherent weakness and capacity for ductile deformation create significant mechanical contrasts that locally perturb the stress field in surrounding rocks, often leading to deviations from regional tectonic stresses. Variations in local stress are a critical factor for wellbore stability, seal integrity, and fluid flow in subsurface ...

Elastic-brittle-plastic behaviour of shale reservoirs and its implications on fracture permeability variation: an analytical approach [PDF]
Shale gas has recently gained significant attention as one of the most important unconventional gas resources. Shales are fine-grained rocks formed from the compaction of silt and clay sized particles and are characterised by their fissured texture and ...

Should all Noises Be Treated Equally: Impact of Input Noise Variability on Neural Network Robustness
Abstract Geophysical data collected from active field sites are often contaminated by complex and heterogeneous noise, obscuring weak seismic events, and complicating automated interpretation. Although deep learning offers promising solutions for seismic processing, its performance is highly sensitive to the nature of training noise, especially under ...

Mechanisms and Applications of Casing Running Mechanics in CCUS Extended‐Reach Horizontal Wells
In this paper, the research on casing running is analyzed. By analyzing the stress and deformation of casing string with centralizer, the calculation model of friction, bending and centralizer pointing force in the process of horizontal down‐hole running of casing string is derived, and the friction between casing and running hole wall is solved by ...
