Hydraulic fracturing under waterflooding conditions in unconsolidated sands

Exploring fracture creation capabilities using low viscosity injection fluids

Rapid injectivity decline is frequently observed during injection in unconsolidated sand reservoirs. Field data suggests that hydraulic fracture processes are directly or indirectly related to this injectivity decline. Conventional fracture theories do not apply to unconsolidated ...
After a waterflood the oil saturation is (close to) the irreducible oil saturation, wherein oil in a porous medium is dispersed over the pore network in unconnected droplets due to snap off. In a chemical flood, the surfactant reduces oil-water interfacial tension and liberates t ...
During the Paris climate convention, goals have been set to counter global warming and work towards a sustainable future. An energy source which has been researched more intensely the past years is HT-ATES - High Temperature Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage - system. This technique ...
Burning oil shales contribute to CO2 emissions. The spatial distribution pattern shows that these _res occur in areas with moderate or dry climates. This paper investigates the mechanism behind the burning oil shales. The first part includes an overview of the geological setting, ...
