Imaging and image analysis of shale provides insights into the pore and fracture networks,
disposition of compositional elements, and signatures of diagenesis and fluid flow …

Characterising large shale thrust zone behaviour down to the diagenetic-metamorphic
boundary is both simple and complex. The task in critical taper, analogue and numerical …

Organic shales can split into laminae or thin layers due to their fissility and are usually
characterized as transverse isotropic media. Understanding their elastic and anisotropic …

Understanding the formation, geometry and fluid connectivity of nominally impermeable
unconventional shale gas and oil reservoirs is crucial for safe unlocking of these vast energy …

We provide a tutorial on the marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) method
aimed at geoscientists and explorationists who are new to EM methods. This tutorial …

Primary depositional and diagenetic processes exert very important influences on shale gas
reservoirs. Rock electrical properties are an important basis for making reservoir prediction …

The thermal maturity of samples of the Posidonia Shale collected from the Hils Syncline,
northern Germany, varies significantly as a function of location indicating variations in local …

泥岩是沉积盆地的主要组成部分, 但由于样品保存性差, 黏土矿物膨胀与收缩, 颗粒细小,
对于泥岩性质的认识并不深入. 而弄清楚泥岩的性质有利于解决目前油气勘探所面临的一系列 …

Magnetotelluric (MT) data has been widely used to image underground electrical structural.
However, when the significant axial resistivity anisotropy presents, how this influences three …

Shales play important roles in sedimentary basins, acting as both seals and reservoir rocks,
and knowledge of their anisotropic velocity trends is of practical importance for correct …
