Tight hydrocarbon reservoirs require stimulation to improve the recovery of oil and gas
resources. Hydraulic fracturing is a technique extensively employed in the oil and gas …

The ever‐increasing quest to identify, secure, access, and operate oil and gas fields is
continuously expanding to the far corners of the planet, facing extreme conditions toward …

Process modeling began with the use of first principles resulting in 'white-box'models which
are complex but accurately explain the dynamics of the process. Recently, there has been …

The slickwater treatment is widely used in the unconventional fracturing. The proppant
addition schedule is an important aspect of slickwater treatment. However, the effect of …

Slickwater fracturing has become one of the most leveraging completion technologies in
unlocking hydrocarbon in unconventional reservoirs. In slickwater treatments, proppant …

Hydraulic fracturing is a technique to extract oil and gas from shale formations, and
obtaining a uniform proppant concentration along the fracture is key to its productivity …

Develo** physically interpretable reduced-order models (ROMs) is critical as they provide
an understanding of the underlying phenomena apart from computational tractability for …

Optimization of multi-stage fracturing horizontal wells is with great significance in shale oil
and gas reservoir production to enhance the gas recovery. The stimulated reservoir volume …

This work explores the application of the recently developed Koopman operator approach
for model identification and feedback control of a hydraulic fracturing process. Controlling …

This work details the construction and evaluation of a low computational cost hybrid
multiscale thin film deposition model that couples artificial neural networks (ANNs) with a …
