Effect of Non-Uniform Flow in Fracture Networks on Recovery from Naturally Fractured Reservoirs

A large number of oil and gas reservoirs across the world are naturally <br/>fractured, f r om which a significant amount of hydrocarbons are produced. <br/>Naturally fractured reservoirs, like all reservoirs, are exploited in t w o stages: <br/>primary recovery and secondary recovery (sometimes followed by tertiary <br/>recovery, i.e. enhanced...

Stone stability under non-uniform flow

Despite the fact that many studies on the stability of stones in bed protections under flowing water have been conducted, our knowledge is still far from advanced and reliable. Issues like how to quantify the hydraulic loads exerted on the stones on a bed and the associated stability of the stones are still central and most challenging in stone...
