Different from the conventional oil reservoirs, the primary storage space of shale is
micro/nano pore networks. Moreover, the multiscale and multi-minerals characteristics of …

Supercritical fluids find use in various areas in oil and gas production operations due to their
unique properties. Supercritical CO 2 (sc-CO 2) with its reduced viscosity, increased …

Primary oil recovery from fractured unconventional formations, such as shale or tight sands,
is typically less than 10%. The development of an economically viable enhanced oil …

Global shale oil is abundant in geological reserves, but there are widespread problems of
difficult exploitation and unsatisfactory oil recovery. CO 2 injection in shale reservoirs can …

Understanding the governing processes of CO 2 huff-n-puff in shales is essential for
enhancing shale gas recovery and CO 2 sequestration. However, existing studies have not …

The timely arrival of novel materials plays a key role in bringing advances to society, as the
pace at which major technological breakthroughs take place is usually dictated by the …

The wetting characteristics of shale rocks at representative subsurface conditions remain an
area of active debate. A precise characterization of shale wettability is essential for …

In recent times, particularly in the 21st century, there has been an alarming increase in the
demand for global energy, along with continuous depletion in conventional oil reservoirs …

Chemical reaction simulations are considerably used to quantitatively assess the long-term
geologic carbon sequestration (GCS), such as CO 2 sequestration capacity estimations …

This paper comprehensively reviews CO 2 sequestration process in saline aquifers. The
storage mechanisms including structural, residual, solubility, and mineral trappings are …
