Reservoir characterization
The objective of this study is to numerically investigate system behavior when storing H2/natural gas (CH4) mixtures in aquifer-related underground gas storage, and the effect of gas composition and salinity on energy-recovery efficiency.
In the past year, publications on CO2, natural gas, and hydrogen storage have increasingly focused on the design, evaluation, and optimization of storage plans. These efforts encompass a broad spectrum of challenges and innovations, including the expansion of storage reservoirs from depleted gas fields and saline aquifers to stratified carbonate formations and heavy-o…
The authors describe the effectiveness of an electromagnetic look-ahead service while drilling in terms of providing accurate formation profiles ahead of the bit to optimize geostopping efficiency.

The purpose of the complete paper is to create a performance-based reservoir characterization by use of production data (measured rates and pressures) from a selected gas-condensate region within the Eagle Ford Shale. -
The complete paper aims at a better understanding of the effect of channel content in complex fluvial channel systems on well-test-derivative responses.

ConocoPhillips and Statoil Petroleum have signed a joint-sponsorship-development agreement with Visuray Technology to fund development of a downhole cement-integrity-evaluation technology that will have the capability of evaluating cement integrity even behind multiple casing strings.

Widely held images of what happens when a well is fractured often bear little resemblance to what actually happens underground.

In the complete paper, a new assessment of the WAG-hysteresis model, which was developed originally for water-wet conditions, was carried out by automatic history matching of two coreflood experiments in water-wet and mixed-wet conditions.

The authors present the results of a detailed experimental study in which underlying pore-level-displacement physics of two- and three-phase flow in a fractured rock sample is investigated with high-resolution X-ray microtomography techniques.

The F field in the Middle East currently has more than 40 producing wells in the center of the structure. The uneven well distribution limits the understanding of 3D reservoir characterization, particularly in the flank areas.

This study focuses on recent experience in Saudi Arabia with crude-oil compositional analyses during pumpout with a wireline formation tester (WFT).

The resistivity index (RI) of Fontainebleau and Bentheimer sandstones was investigated at ambient and reservoir pressures down to low water saturations. The RI measurements show that both sandstones display Archie behavior at elevated pressure.
