This book is devoted to describing theories for porous media where such pores have an
inbuilt macro structure and a micro structure. For example, a double porosity material has …

Gaseated underbalanced drilling is an attractive choice for horizontal drilling in
unconventional reservoirs. However, mud pulse telemetry usually fails in gaseated systems …

Pore structures determine reservoir storage capacity, control rock transportation
characteristics and represent microscopic properties of the rock. Therefore, the …

The recent development of unconventional oil and gas (O&G) reservoirs has led to an
abundant hydrocarbon supply, both domestically and globally. However, there is a …

General models are presented for a triple porosity thermoelastic solid in the anisotropic
case, and for a triple and a fourth order porosity elastic material. This article examines the …

A grading system for tight sandstone reservoir quality is needed to predict tight oil
enrichment areas and assess the resources. To explore the establishment of the grading …

The objective of this study is to reduce uncertainties and optimize thermal applications.
Thermal methods are the most effective to mobilize and produce heavy oil. The process can …

This paper presents a comprehensive laboratory protocol to evaluate and characterize the in-
situ rock and fluid samples from the Viking Formation in the Western Canadian Sedimentary …

Two main models of fluids flow through nanopore space were considered. Single tube
capillary model (and its improvements) and net model of nanopore space. Flexibility …

This research involves the application of supervised, unsupervised, and deep learning ML
modeling approaches using empirically-derived well completion, production, and geologic …
