A much-needed, precise and practical treatment of a key topic in
the energy industry and beyond, Applied Concepts in Fractured
Reservoirs is an invaluable reference for those in both industry
and academia Authored by renowned experts in the field, this book
covers the understanding, evaluation, and effects of fractures in
reservoirs. It offers a comprehensive yet practical discussion and
description of natural fractures, their origins, characteristics,
and effects on hydrocarbon reservoirs. It starts by introducing the
reader to basic definitions and classifications of fractures and
fractured reservoirs. It then provides an outline for
fractured-reservoir characterization and analysis, and goes on to
introduce the way fractures impact operational activities. Well
organized and clearly illustrated throughout, Applied Concepts in
Fractured Reservoirs starts with a section on understanding natural
fractures. It looks at the different types, their dimensions, and
the mechanics of fracturing rock in extension and shear. The next
section provides information on measuring and analyzing fractures
in reservoirs. It covers: logging core for fractures; taking,
measuring, and analyzing fracture data; new core vs. archived core;
CT scans; comparing fracture data from outcrops, core, and logs;
and more. The last part examines the effects of natural fractures
on reservoirs, including: the permeability behavior of individual
fractures and fracture systems; fracture volumetrics; effects of
fractures on drilling and coring; and the interaction between
natural and hydraulic fractures. Teaches readers to understand and
evaluate fractures Compiles and synthesizes various concepts and
descriptions scattered in literature and synthesizes them with
unpublished oil-field observations and data, along with the
authors' own experience Bridges some of the gaps between reservoir
engineers and geologists Provides an invaluable reference for
geologists and engineers who need to understand naturally fractured
reservoirs in order to efficiently extract hydrocarbons Illustrated
in full color throughout Companion volume to the Atlas of Natural
and Induced Fractures in Core
