Breakthrough pressure is a key parameter of the caprock sealing ability for gas reservoirs. It
has also become an important parameter for gas production from tight reservoirs, such as …

Abstract The Middle Permian Lucaogou Formation in the Santanghu Basin (northwest
China) develops one of the thickest salinized lacustrine organic-rich shale (SLORS) in the …

The positive effect of modified salinity water (MSW) injection on oil recovery has been
broadly reported in the literature through core flooding experiment tests. Yet, the challenges …

Distribution of volcanic reservoirs in Xujiaweizi half graben is controlled by both faults and
sealing layers where their integrity could have been compromised. This paper documents …

Oil production performance in the unconventional reservoirs is significantly affected by the
flooding agent and occurrence environment. In this study, the in-situ stress and …

Research on the diagenesis of continental sandstone reservoirs can provide scientific
guidance for the prediction of reservoir sweet spots. The low permeable-interbedded thin …

Evaluating top seal integrity is crucial for successful subsurface CO 2 storage. Caprock
shale geomechanical properties are complex and influenced by various parameters and …

The occurrence and enrichment of shale plays are highly controlled by pore characteristics
of the formation. In this study, an immature sample rich in kerogen type III from the …

To illustrate organic matter (OM) pores structure and evolution in shales with different
maturities, the Triassic Yanchang shale (0.5%< Vitrinite reflectance (R o)< 1.2%) in the …

The behavior of oil and water in tight rocks can change the distribution of oil or water in
pores, which affects the production of crude oil. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) …
