Huang, Jian (2013-04-05)Within fractured reservoirs, such as tight gas reservoir, coupled processes between matrix deformation and fluid flow are very important for predicting reservoir behavior, pore pressure evolution and fracture closure. To ...
-
Meyer, Melissa J (2018-03-30)Whole-rock elemental data is a useful tool for sub-dividing and characterizing mudrock variability across a shale basin. The chemostratigraphy of the Cenomanian-Turonian the Woodbine and Eagle Ford Groups in the Brazos ...
-
Jayakumar, Swathika 1986- (2012-07-09)Technologies such as horizontal wells and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing have made ultra-low permeability shale and tight gas reservoirs productive but the industry is still on the learning curve when it comes to addressing ...
-
Najem, Faisal Tammam (2018-12-03)Viscoelastic surfactants were introduced in hydraulic fracturing fluids as a proppant carrier in order to replace polymers which possess high potential for formation damage. Yet, VES technology is limited by its low thermal ...
-
Agarwal, Amit Kumar (2013-01-14)Sandstone acidizing is a complex operation because the acidizing fluid reacts with a variety of minerals present in the formation that results in a wide range of reaction products. The hydrofluoric acid (HF) reaction rate ...
-
Mahmoud, Omar Saad Ahmed (2017-11-28)The capabilities of different types of nanoparticles (NPs) had been exploited to develop a water-based drilling fluid having better characteristics for harsh drilling conditions. More specifically, the objectives of this ...

An In-depth Investigation of an Aluminum Chloride Retarded Mud Acid System on Sandstone Reservoirs Aneto, Nnenna (2012-07-16)Sandstone acidizing using mud acid is a quick and complex process where dissolution and precipitation occur simultaneously. Retarded mud acids are less reactive with the rock reducing the reaction rate hence increased ...
-
Zhang, Rixing (2021-08-13)Among the additives in slickwater fracturing, only friction reducers (FRs) are heavy molecular polymers, many of which are polyacrylamide-based. Although they are useful for their intended purpose, FRs rapidly decrease the ...
-
Kumar, Rahul Pradeep (2014-01-02)The existence of an optimum injection rate for wormhole propagation, and face dissolution at low injection rates during matrix acidizing are well established. However, little has been documented that describes how the ...
-
Hanafy, Ahmed Mohamed (2018-11-06)Formation matrix acidizing is an essential step in the life of any oil or gas production well. The stimulation process is basically designed around the mineralogy of the formation, the goal of the treatment, the lithology, ...
-
Ardali, Mojtaba (2013-05-09)Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) has been demonstrated as a proven technology to unlock heavy oil and bitumen in Canadian reservoirs. Given the large energy requirements and volumes of emitted greenhouse gases from ...
-
Ramanathan, Raja (2021-04-12)Iron sulfide scales create well deliverability and integrity problems such as reduced production rates and damage to well tubulars. Problems associated with the use of HCl to remove these scales such as high corrosion rate, ...
-
An Itegrated Approach to Water Treatment in Oil and Gas Industry via Thermal Membrane Distillation Elsayed, Nesreen Ahmed Abdelmoez Mohamed (2014-10-14)This work is aimed at developing a systematic approach for designing treatment systems for wastewater streams resulting from upstream production and downstream processing of oil and gas systems. The approach will provide ...
-
Long, Maximilian Mark (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Well control is of the utmost importance during drilling operations. Numerous well control incidents occur on land and offshore rigs. The consequences of a loss in well control can be devastating. Hydrocarbon reservoirs ...
-
Yamak, Raafat Mahmoud (2017-12-08)As unconventional reservoirs continue to dominate the current economic climate, there is a great demand for developing innovative and efficient fracture treatment methodologies. Traditionally, the vast majority of hydraulic ...
-
Teixeira Oliveira, Rafael Cesar (2016-08-09)Drilling teams face several challenges when operating in high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) fields, such as lost circulation and difficulties in well control. One way to address these issues is to fully understand the ...
-
Akanni, Olatokunbo O (2015-11-28)This study demonstrates the application of an alternative formulation to effectively describe the flow field in a two-scale carbonate matrix-acidizing model. The model is further modified and extended to alternative acidizing ...
-
De Almeida, Jose Alejandro (2012-02-14)The use of statistics has been common practice within the petroleum industry for over a decade. With such a mature subject that includes specialized software and numerous articles, the challenge of this project was to ...
-
Gakhar, Kush (2012-02-14)Excess water production is a major economic and environmental problem for the oil and gas industry. The cost of processing excess water runs into billions of dollars. Polymer gel technology has been successfully used in ...
-
Ali, Mahmoud Taha (2019-05-22)The two-scale continuum (TSC) model for simulating carbonate acidizing gained substantial attention recently. The previous studies mainly dealt with matching experimental homogenous limestone experiments. The previous work ...
