Reservoir
The UAE project is expected to produce up to 345 MMscf/D by 2029, with expansion potential to 1 Bcf/D.
This study investigates the potential for in-situ hydrogen generation from hydrocarbons using in-situ combustion, with particular emphasis on the role of kerogen content and heating mode.
This paper presents the application of degradable particulate-diverter technology to improve oil production by effectively diverting stimulation treatment fluids away from high-water-cut, high-permeability, high-temperature producing intervals or zones.

Reserves- and resources-evaluation methods in unconventional reservoirs are different from those for conventional reservoirs. -
A carbonate field developed by Petroleum Development Oman is one of the largest fields in the Sultanate of Oman and has been running for more than 4 decades.
-
An integrated-asset-model (IAM) approach has been implemented for the Alpine field and eight associated satellite fields on the western Alaskan North Slope (WNS) to maximize asset value and recovery.
-
A variety of low-cost technologies can result in an increase in production in mature oil and gas fields, although the increase is usually temporary and not always economical.
-
Three observations have resulted from horizontal-well development in the Sulige tight gas field.
-
The North American shale-gas boom has highlighted the differences that a few years and a few thousand miles can make.
-
Natural-gas production from tight and shale-gas reservoirs will be increasingly important in China as the country shifts from coal-based energy to cleaner energy sources.
-
Europe and Australia have joined the US in expanding recoverable hydrocarbons from unconventional resources, and initial activities are on the rise elsewhere.
-
Gas in tight sand and shale exists in underground reservoirs with microdarcy or even nanodarcy permeability ranges; these reservoirs are characterized by small pore throats and crack-like interconnections between pores.
-
Successful development of flank areas depends on accurate reservoir characterization—in particular, water-saturation distribution—in addition to the optimal areal and vertical placement of wells.
