Production decline from wells producing from shale rocks is typically quite rapid. One
possible factor responsible for such decline is loss in fracture conductivity. This is true in the …

This study utilizes a combination of 2D high-resolution microscopy images and 3D
reconstructions to shed light on pore connectivity and the distribution of organic matter within …

Creep properties are important in evaluating wellbore stabilities and fracture closures in
unconventional reservoirs. To understand the fundamental mechanism of the creep …

The Tuscaloosa Marine Shale (TMS) is a versatile Late Cretaceous shale formation present
in central and SE Louisiana and SW Mississippi, which drew attention because of the …

Spontaneous imbibition of hydraulic fracturing fluids is considered as one of the underlying
causes of water loss during multistage fracturing operations. Understanding the …

This research presents production data analysis and potential evaluation of Tuscaloosa
