(1986)Texas' water demand is steadily increasing. In the past, ground water was used to meet the majority of demand. However, this continuing withdrawal is causing many problems. Because of this situation, the state is now turning ...
-
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 ...
-
(2016-06-17)New fracturing techniques have helped to unlock the once unrecoverable oil from unconventional reservoirs. Unfortunately, even with newer technologies, there are still resources in place that the industry is leaving behind ...
-
(2011-02-22)Surface water availability models often use monthly simulation time steps for reasons of data availability, model parameter parsimony, and reduced computational time. Representing realistic streamflow variability, ...
-
(2013-07-23)A rigorous three-phase asphaltene precipitation model was implemented into a compositional reservoir simulator to represent and estimate the reduction of porosity and permeability responsible for productivity impairment. ...
-
(2017-07-08)Trypanosoma cruzi, agent of Chagas disease, is a zoonotic vector-borne protozoan that infects mammalian hosts throughout the Americas. Spillover from sylvatic cycles occurs when triatomine vectors bridge the parasite from ...
-
(2015-08-10)Heavy and extra heavy oil are fluids with high ranges of viscosity at both reservoir and surface conditions. These fluids have complex production processes due to factors such as high sulfide content, carbon dioxide (or ...
-
(2013-08-19)In order to understand the complex fracture network that controls water movement in Sherrod Area of Spraberry Field in West Texas and to better manage the on-going waterflood performance, a field scale inter-well tracer ...
-
(2016-08-05)Reservoir monitoring allows petroleum engineers to acquire a better understanding of the phenomenon happening inside a hydrocarbon reservoir under development; multiple methods exist currently to monitor a reservoir, ...
-
(2016-07-28)Hot waterflooding is a well-known method of thermal enhanced oil recovery. Prediction of the reservoir behavior is generally obtained through numerical simulation. The finite volume simulator is the most common tool to ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Finding and developing oil and gas resources requires accurate geological information with which to formulate strategies for exploration and exploitation ventures. When data are scarce, statistical procedures are sometimes ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The Jacob field was discovered in the year 1931. In the year 2002, due to the low productivity of the field, the company wanted to determine whether to keep operating, abandon or sell the field. So they asked Texas A&M ...
-
(2013-08-22)In the last two years, due in part to the collapse of natural gas prices, the oil industry has turned its focus from shale gas exploration to shale oil/tight oil. Some of the important plays under development include the ...
