The impact of geomechanical behavior in the SAGD process has received increased
attention over the last decade because of its importance in assessing caprock integrity and …

Critical issues in the development of oil fields include the differences in the layer properties
as well as serious interlayer conflicts and disturbances that can lead to the formation of a …

An efficient, numerical local upscaling technique for estimating elastic geomechanical
properties in heterogeneous continua is proposed. The upscaled anisotropic elastic …

This paper focuses on proper modeling of bypassed oil in tight chalk during gas injection,
caused partly by the small-scale heterogeneity and the non-equilibrium contact especially in …

Expanding-solvent steam-assisted gravity drainage (ES-SAGD) is a widely-investigated
alternative to SAGD, considering its potential to reduce thermal losses while enhancing …
