Accurate placement of multiple horizontal wells drilled from the same well pad plays a
critical role in the successful economical production from unconventional gas reservoirs …

Low permeability oil reservoir has the characteristics of low porosity and low permeability.
The initial fracturing can effectively improve the recovery of the reservoir, but the physical …

It is proposed that very low permeability formations are possible candidates for CO2
sequestration. Further, experimental studies have shown that shale formations have huge …

Refracturing is a promising option for addressing the characteristically steep decline curves
of shale gas wells. In this work we propose two optimization models to address the …

The observed uneconomic production performance in many shale gas horizontal wells
suggests refracturing as a restimulation treatment to revive economic gas production. To …

In this work we present an optimization framework for shale gas well development and
refracturing planning. This problem is concerned with if and when a new shale gas well …

We investigate the economic feasibility of the re-fracturing treatment of horizontal wells
producing gas from unconventional reservoirs. As a result of advancements in horizontal …

Hydraulic fracturing is a stimulation treatment routinely performed to create fracture network
on low permeability reservoirs to enhance the productivity. Such induced fracture network …

For many years, shale gas exploitation has been generating contradictory views in the UK
and remains subject of rising debates throughout these years. Favorably backed by the …
