There are many natural fractures in the shale reservoir, and the degree of fracture
development directly determines the reservoir quality and production of the shale gas …

Low resistivity pay (LRP) zones have been identified within many siliciclastic reservoirs
around the world, and have gained significant attention due to their ability to hold substantial …

The performance of sandstone reservoirs in hydrocarbon exploration and production is
influenced by their depositional facies and diagenetic history. However, the depositional …
