Naturally fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs play an important role in the world's oil and
gas production. Pore-scale modeling is treated as an important approach for unveiling the …

Because of its solid structure, low permeability, slow diffusion and good chemical retention
for many radionuclides, cementitious materials are often used for conditioning radioactive …

Shale samples consist of two major components: organic matter (OM) and inorganic mineral
component (iOM). Each component has its distinct pore network topology and morphology …

In this paper, we examine the pore space geometry and topology of a North Sea sandstone
reservoir rock based on multi-scale scanning electron microscopy. The reservoir was …

Shale is a complex porous medium composed of organic matter (OM) and inorganic
minerals (iOM). Because of its widespread nanopores, using Darcy's law is challenging. In …

This paper describes a comprehensive approach to improved lithofacies characterization
using the simultaneous pre-stack inversion, Bayesian classification, and multiple-point …

Modeling reservoir permeability is one of the crucial tasks in reservoir simulation studies.
Traditionally, it is done by kriging-based methods. More rigorous modeling of the …

Pore-scale modeling is becoming a hot topic in overall reservoir characterization process. It
is an important approach for revealing the flow behaviors in porous media and exploring …

The transport and elastic properties of a rock are functions of the pore size distribution,
geometry and morphology. Due to limited availability of 3-D micro-structure images of rocks …

Enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques have the potential to improve hydrocarbon
recovery and project economics substantially. Characterizing fluid displacement and the …
