Different from the conventional oil reservoirs, the primary storage space of shale is
micro/nano pore networks. Moreover, the multiscale and multi-minerals characteristics of …

This paper presents a comprehensive review of the technical progress as well as updated
knowledge and understandings of IOR/EOR technologies for tight oil reservoirs. Critical and …

Production of tight oil from shale reservoirs in North America reduces oil imports and has
better economics than natural gas. Currently, there is a strong interest in oil production from …

Unconventional oil reservoirs have become an increasingly essential resource for energy in
recent years. Despite the massive oil reserves in these reservoirs, as well as the current …

The key to understanding capillary condensation phenomena and employing that
knowledge in a wide range of engineering applications lies in the synergy of theoretical and …

Tight oil reservoirs are contributing a major role to fulfill the overall crude oil needs,
especially in the US. However, the dilemma is their ultra-tight permeability and an …

Because of the effect of nanoscale confinement, the phase behavior of fluids confined in
nanopores differs significantly from that observed in a PVT cell. In this paper, the cubic Peng …

Shale oil and gas resources contribute significantly to the energy production in the US
Greenhouse gas emissions come from combustion of fossil fuels from potential sources of …

In recent years, CO 2 enhanced oil recovery has gained traction in shale oil reservoirs.
Shale oil reservoirs are characterized by numerous nanopores, where shale oil exhibits …

Fine-grained sedimentary rocks–namely mudrocks, including their laminated fissile variety—
shales–make up about two thirds of all sedimentary rocks in the Earth's crust and a quarter …
