A comprehensive textbook presenting techniques for the analysis and
characterization of shale plays Significant reserves of
hydrocarbons cannot be extracted using conventional methods.
Improvements in techniques such as horizontal drilling and
hydraulic fracturing have increased access to unconventional
hydrocarbon resources, ushering in the "shale boom" and disrupting
the energy sector. Unconventional Hydrocarbon Resources: Techniques
for Reservoir Engineering Analysis covers the geochemistry,
petrophysics, geomechanics, and economics of unconventional shale
oil plays. The text uses a step-by-step approach to demonstrate
industry-standard workflows for calculating resource volume and
optimizing the extraction process. Volume highlights include:
Methods for rock and fluid characterization of unconventional shale
plays A workflow for analyzing wells with stimulated reservoir
volume regions An unconventional approach to understanding of fluid
flow through porous media A comprehensive summary of discoveries of
massive shale resources worldwide Data from Eagle Ford, Woodford,
Wolfcamp, and The Bakken shale plays Examples, homework
assignments, projects, and access to supplementary online resources
Hands-on teaching materials for use in petroleum engineering
software applications The American Geophysical Union promotes
discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity.
Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide
resources for researchers, students, and professionals.
