Compositional modeling of gas injection in tight oil reservoirs
The commercial development of tight oil reservoirs has reshaped the landscape of the petroleum industry in North America. However, the recovery factor (RF) of tight oil with primary depletion is very low, mostly below 10%. With a large volume of remaining oil in tight oil reservoirs, the successful …

Capillary pressure curve and liquid permeability estimation in tight oil reservoirs using pressure decline versus time data
Estimating oil recovery from shale is a difficult process because organic mudrocks have very low permeability (10nD - 100nD), high kerogen and clay content, a complex pore structure and low porosity (typically less than 10%). In addition, most of the pore sizes in organic mudrocks are within the …

Numerical Simulation of pressure Transient Analysis in Tight Formation and Field Data Categorization and Typical Well Production Data Analysis
Low to ultra-low permeability tight oil reservoirs have recently become a significant source of hydrocarbon supply in North America. Production and pressure transient analysis of tight oil reservoirs is one of the most difficult problems facing a reservoir researcher because of the extreme …

Single Well Completion and Management Strategies for Enhanced Recovery of Tight Oil Using Miscible Gas Injection
Tight oil production relies on the multiple transverse fracture horizontal well completion design with 50 or more parallel propped hydraulic fractures distributed along a long horizontal well. Less than 10% primary oil recovery from these wells creates a strong incentive for enhancing recovery from …

Production Analysis and Enhancement in The Unconventional Tight Formations
… using multistage hydraulic fracturing for tight/shale oil and gas development. Analysis of the existing wells’ performance and development of production enhancement techniques are of critical interest for the improvement of the development efficiency in these formations. Production …

CO2 Sequestration through Mineral Carbonation
… This thesis explores the use of unconventional reservoirs such as shales and siltstones as a target for mineral trapping of CO2. Although some studies of CO2 storage in shales and low-permeability (tight) reservoirs exist, most previous studies of shales related to CO2 storage have primarily …
