-
Based on the asymptotic approximation of the diffusivity equation for slightly compressible fluids, our research team looked into its application in early time fracture interference effects and late time reservoir shape ...

(2022-04-11)Providing the necessary energy supply to a growing world and market is essential to support human social development in an environmentally friendly. The energy industry is undergoing a digital transformation and rapidly ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)The petroleum industry faces problems in transportation of crude petroleum be- cause of the deposition of paraffins, hydrates and asphaltenes on the insides of the pipeline. These are conventionally removed using either ...
-
(2016-08-02)The deepwater and ultra-deepwater drilling industry has created several techniques to overcome the Well-Control challenge in these scenarios. Dual Gradient Drilling is one of those techniques. Created in the mid-90’s the ...
-
(2016-05-04)Unconventional reservoirs have become increasingly possible and economical due to the advances of hydraulic fracturing, a stimulation technique that creates highly conductive fractures that serve as pathways for hydrocarbons ...
-
(2015-05-12)Production of hydrocarbons from low-permeability shale reservoirs has become economically feasible thanks in part to advances in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. Together, these two techniques help to create ...
-
(2020-04-27)Understanding the phase behavior of hydrocarbons is essential in the oil and gas industry. However, current methodologies for obtaining phase diagrams are time-consuming, expensive, and yield few data points. Thus, a new ...
-
(2018-05-01)Due to their ultra-low permeability and extremely heterogeneous formations, unconventional liquids-rich reservoirs (ULR) need a support of an effective hydraulic fracturing for economic and commercial oil production. In ...

(2009-05-15)Portfolios of contemporary integrated petroleum companies consist of a few dozen Exploration and Production (E&P) projects that are usually spread all over the world. Therefore, it is important not only to manage individual ...
-
(2014-08-27)Carbonate precipitation can be either promoted or inhibited by microbial processes in different redox zones. It is therefore possible for basin redox evolution to indirectly control early carbonate diagenesis and modify ...
-
(2017-01-13)This study proposes a probabilistic decision-making support model (“Green Tree”), created in Microsoft Excel, to assist operators of marginal assets in prioritizing well workover decisions. Such a tool can help operators ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)Over the course of normal oil well operations, pipes used downhole in the oil and petroleum industry tend to accumulate a mineral deposit on their interior, which restricts the flow of oil. This deposit, termed scale, ...
