The current study offers a practical guide for dealing with water influx and liquid loading
problems particular to gas wells. Methods and discussions on remedying these problems …

This paper first presents so-called unified Gaussian solutions for the spatial advance of
diffusion transients triggered by a sudden change in pressure, molecular mass …

Reservoir modeling to predict shale reservoir productivity is considerably uncertain and time
consuming. Since we need to simulate the physical phenomenon of multi-stage hydraulic …

This study presents new pressure transient solutions, illustrated with some examples of the
vast practical application potential. Gaussian pressure transients (GPT) are derived here to …

This study revisits the mathematical equations for diffusive mass transport in 1D, 2D and 3D
space and highlights a widespread misconception about the meaning of the regular and …

Shale field development strategies are aimed at increasing recovery factors and thus
revolve around well-spacing decisions and hydraulic fracture treatment plans. The hydraulic …

This case study highlights that shale wells drilled with tight well spacing in the same landing
zone using the same fracture treatment plan, commonly show large variance in well …

The present study shows how new Gaussian solutions of the pressure diffusion equation
can be applied to model the pressure depletion of reservoirs produced with hydraulically …

This study investigates the changes in the principal stress trajectories during development of
hydrocarbon (and/or geothermal) reservoirs with hydraulically fractured wells. Our analysis …

In order to account for big uncertainties such as well interferences, hydraulic and natural
fractures' properties and matrix properties in shale gas reservoirs, it is paramount to develop …
