Impacts of water molecules on subsurface shale gas adsorption is a challenging topic in the
assessment of shale gas resources and the selection of optimized exploitation plans. And …

Shale oil is the main field of unconventional hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation.
Additionally, deep (> 4500 m) petroleum exploration in sedimentary basins is a worldwide …

Antitaxial fibrous veins are commonly developed in low permeability shale in orogenic belts
and sedimentary basins. We review work on antitaxial fibrous veins, provide a classification …

The coupling relationship between volcanic-hydrothermal activities and hydrocarbon
generation has been a common understanding in recent years. However, there is a lack of …

Movable fluid content and permeability are important reference factors for reservoir quality
evaluation and recovery enhancement. In this study, based on multiple experimental results …

The Paleoproterozoic dark shale of the Cuizhuang Formation is the potential petroleum
source rock in the Yuncheng Basin. Mineralogy, organic and inorganic geochemical …

Since the mechanisms of methane-mudstone interactions are important for estimating shale
gas reserves, methane adsorption under supercritical conditions of 30 MPa pressure and …

The movable fluid porosity can be used as a sensitivity factor to reflect the seepage capacity
of tight reservoirs. However, the stress sensitivity and compressibility of samples differ and it …

In this study, a series of experiments were carried out on tight sandstone samples from the
Yangchang Formation in the Ordos Basin, China to investigate their pore-throat spaces and …

The pore structure and occurrence state of hydrocarbons in shale reservoirs are significant
factors affecting shale oil production. However, how pore structure affects the occurrence of …
