For the purpose of clarifying seismic response characteristics fractured-cavity reservoirs Dengying Formation in central Sichuan Basin, paper first intends to establish three geological models fracture cave based on drilling, logging, and core data Basin. Then, formation reflection is calculated with reference anisotropic Horizontal Transverse Isotropy (HTI) medium. Finally, further research Am...

in this paper, the effect of hydrocarbon fluid properties on water coning in fractured reservoirs, using a black oil numerical simulator has been studied. effect of each parameter has been investigated both separately and also with the construction of different models. using separate constructed models.primarily the hydrocarbon fluid density, viscosity and also water density as effective parame...

Unconventional gas reservoirs have shown the potential to be the next world primary energy resource and have received a lot of attention in the past few years in the world. Even with the significant progress that has been made world-wide towards commercial development of natural gas from these unconventional resources, understandings or modeling tools of gas flow in these extremely low-permeabi...

Carbonate rocks of the Triassic deposits South Mangyshlak basin are investigated in this paper for their boundary values, which important interpretation field geophysical data as well perforation and blasting. Based on lithological composition, classified either terrigenous or carbonate reservoirs. reservoirs found Middle strata containing volcanogenic dolomite limestone rocks. A complex type r...

This work studies the combined behavior of (1) horizontal wells, and (2) high-permeability fracturing. Fractured vertical WCIIS in high-permeability formations always yield finite conductivity fractures which in turn can reduce the benefits of the stimulation. It has been proposed recently that a fracture along a horizontal WC1lposes far smaller pressure drops than those of the fracture interse...

Phase change of pore fluid (boiling/condensing) in rock cores under conditions representative of geothermal reservoirs results in alterations of the electrical resistivity of the samples. In fractured samples, phase change can result in resistivity changes that are more than an order of magnitude greater than those measured in intact samples. These results suggest that electrical resistivity mo...

This study focuses on the mechanisms responsible for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) from fractured carbonate reservoirs by surfactant solutions, and methods to screen for effective chemical formulations quickly. One key to this EOR process is the surfactant solution reversing the wettability of the carbonate surfaces from less water-wet to more water-wet conditions. This effect allows the aqueous ...

For the modeling and simulation of oil recovery from naturally fractured reservoirs during the gas injection process, an accurate value of the molecular diffusion coefficient (MDC) of gases from a gas filled fracture into the oil matrix is essential. During the injection of miscible fluids with oil, transport of the injectant and oil are controlled by fracture and matrix properties. Diffusion i...

Generation of naturally fractured reservoir subsurface fracture maps and prediction its production potential are considered complex process due to insufficient data available such as bore hole images, core data and proper reservoir simulator model. To overcome such shortcomings, the industry has relied on geo-statistical analyses of hard and soft data, which are often referred to as static data...

Fractured reservoirs account for a majority of the oil production worldwide and often have low recovery rate. Fracture characterization is important in building reservoir flow models for enhanced oil recovery. Information about fracture orientation, fracture spacing, and fracture compliances is essential. When a fracture network consisting of multiple sets of fractures with variable fracture sp...
