This timely book begins with an overview of shale gas reservoir
features such as natural fracture systems, multi-fractured
horizontal wells, adsorption/desorption of methane, and non-linear
flow within the reservoir. Geomechanical modelling, an aspect of
importance in ultra-low permeability reservoirs, is also presented
in detail. Taking these complex features of shale reservoirs into
account, the authors develop a numerical model, which is verified
with field data using the history matching technique. Based on this
model, the pressure transient and production characteristics of a
fractured horizontal well in a shale gas reservoir are analysed
with respect to reservoir and fracture properties. Methods for the
estimation of shale properties are also detailed. Minifrac tests,
rate transient tests (RTA), and type curve matching are used to
estimate the initial pressure, permeability, and fracture
half-length. Lastly, future technologies such as the technique of
injecting CO2 into shale reservoirs are presented. The book will be
of interest to industrial practitioners, as well as to academics
and graduate students in the field of reservoir engineering.
Transport in Shale Reservoirs fills the need for a necessary,
integrative approach on shale reservoirs. It delivers both the
fundamental theories of transport in shale reservoirs and the most
recent advancements in the recovery of shale oil and gas in one
convenient reference. Shale reservoirs have distinctive features
dissimilar to those of conventional reservoirs, thus an accurate
evaluation on the behavior of shale gas reservoirs requires an
integrated understanding on their characteristics and the transport
of reservoir and fluids.
