Reservoir characterization
This paper presents a novel methodology for assessing the rapid mineral carbonation of carbon dioxide through geochemical interactions with carbon-, magnesium-, and iron-rich minerals abundant in geological formations.
This study integrates physics-based constraints into machine-learning models, thereby improving their predictive accuracy and robustness.
This paper introduces a machine-learning approach that integrates well-logging data to enhance depth selection, thereby increasing the likelihood of obtaining accurate and valuable formation-pressure results.

SponsoredThermo Scientific e-Core Software is a unique, high-performance computing platform for the characterization of complex porous media. It focuses on the three essential components of Digital Rock Analysis: parallel computing, multiscale modeling, and process-based reconstruction of 3D volumes.

The UK offshore Lancaster field was to prove that complex basement formations could be profitably developed. Instead, it is a reminder of how a long-term production test can drastically alter a reservoir model built upon years of exploration work.

Advances during the past decade in using convolutional neural networks for visual recognition of discriminately different objects means that now object recognition can be achieved to a significant extent.

Automated image-processing algorithms can improve the quality and speed in classifying the morphology of heterogeneous carbonate rock. Several commercial products have produced petrophysical properties from 2D images and, to a lesser extent, from 3D images.

The complete paper presents a technical discussion of a new microsampling technique for LWD and a corresponding wellsite technique to provide compositional interpretation, contamination assessment, reservoir-fluid compositional grading, and reservoir compartmentalization assessment.

In tectonically influenced regions, potential hydrocarbon traps are subject to complex states of stress. This scenario often translates into severe strike/slip (SS) and thrust-fault or reverse-fault (TF/RF) stress states.
