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 …

Unconventional resources, including tight oil and gas formations and shale plays, have
become a vital source of energy all over the world. The unique characteristic of these …

Accurate models of gas transport in shale gas reservoirs must consider complex gas
transport mechanisms and phase behavior in nanopores, as well as different pore types …

In conventional permeable media, once pore volume (PV) is known, the amount of fluid-in-
place can be estimated. This is because the fluid is locally homogeneous, pores are …

Many leading experts contribute to this follow-up to An Introduction to Reservoir Simulation

Finding an optimized adsorption model to estimate the true adsorbed quantity of methane in
shale at reservoir conditions is fundamental for estimating the gas-in-place (GIP), and …

Distribution of alkanes and water in organic pores of shale, referred to as kerogen, is
essential information required for the estimation of shale-reservoir oil and gas in place …

Shale reservoirs play an important role as a future energy resource of the United States.
Numerous studies were performed to describe the storage and transport of hydrocarbons …

Understanding the pore networks of unconventional tight reservoirs such as tight
sandstones and shales is crucial for extracting oil/gas from such reservoirs. Mercury …

Accurate description of absolute adsorption/desorption behavior for hydrocarbons on shale
