Unconventional Reservoir Geomechanics discusses a variety of approaches on how to develop geomechanical models and predict hydrocarbon extraction for unconventional reservoirs. Starting with a full explanation of a more unified theoretical framework that discusses permeability characterization, the authors then offer a full range of new modelling solutions that are followed by a series of lab and field-scale applications. Going a step further, other applications, such as CO2 sequestration in coal seam or shale gas reservoirs, are explained to illustrate how unconventional reservoir geomechanics can be extended to solve related and more complex challenges.
Combining both theoretical and practical models backed by data, this book gives reservoir engineers a smarter and more sophisticated tool to approach today's more complex geomechanical modeling challenges.
- Provides a foundation of solutions for the extraction of unconventional resources and other related areas- Introduces a completely new theoretical framework of coupled multi-spatial and multi-temporal multi-physics in rocks with significant contracts of physical properties among components- Focuses on an understanding and inclusion of four characteristics of unconventional rocks, with applications to shale gas, coal seam and CO2 sequestration
