To better understand the quality of the heterogeneous reservoir and gas accumulation in
tight sandstone reservoirs, it is necessary to reveal the internal relationship between the …

Full coring in shale reservoirs is challenging, time consuming, and risky due to fragility.
Therefore, shale outcrop analogs are often used as an alternative to enhance the …

This paper presents an experimental study of improved oil recovery from fractured tight
cores by huff-n-puff of the aqueous solutions of 3-pentanone. The huff-n-puff experiments …

Unconventional tight reservoirs currently make up more than 60% of domestic oil and gas
production in the United States. However, develo** unconventional formations requires …

The combination of an organic carbon-rich, thermally mature hydrocarbon source rock with
intervals of brittle lithology make the Woodford Shale an excellent unconventional oil and …

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) was applied to measuring drill cuttings in order to characterize
reservoir heterogeneity along a horizontal wellbore that landed in the organic-rich Woodford …

Abstract The Woodford Shale is the most prolific source rock in the Anadarko Basin and
Cherokee Platform and, over the past decade, it has become renowned for its high …

Oils and hydrocarbon source rocks from the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma have been
studied extensively for many decades, and results from multiple studies have been …

We have summarized the threefold significance of karst unconformity boundary:(1) The
development of a sequence stratigraphic model for the Devonian Woodford Shale Formation …

Thank you to my thesis committee members, Dr. Matthew Pranter and Dr. Fuge Zou. I
