Abstract Characterization and modeling of unconventional reservoirs are quite challenging
as the fluid flow through nanoporous media is not well-understood due to complexity of such …

Saudi Arabia diverse landforms include saltmarshes, sand dunes, desert plains, desert
pavements, ancient lava fields, and mountains. Climate is influenced by winter Polar and …

Formation porosity is a key factor that exerts substantial control upon reserve estimates, and
ultimately may affect the development viability of unconventional resources. Microporosity …

Abstract Southern Lower Indus basin is an oil and gas prone basin, which is important for
producing hydrocarbon in Pakistan. Due to limited Rock-Eval pyrolysis data availability in …

Carbonate microporosity can vary significantly across depositional lithofacies and cycles,
owing primarily to the high degree of heterogeneity in their pore sizes, pore throat radius …

Multi-stage hydraulic fracturing (MsHF) is the main technology to improve hydrocarbon
recovery from shale plays. Associated with their rich organic contents and laminated …

Organic-rich mud rocks are being developed on a large scale worldwide, including in the
Middle East. The Jurassic Tuwaiq Mountain Formation (TMF) in the Jafurah Basin is a …

Organic-rich carbonate mudstones have emerged as a significant unconventional play
globally, particularly the Middle Jurassic carbonate mudstones of the Arabian plate. Despite …

The largest marine carbonate oilfield and gas condensate field in China have been found in
the Ordovician limestones in the central Tarim Basin. They are defined as large “layered” …

The TZ-No1 gas field in the Tarim Basin is the largest condensate field in China; however, it
has not developed efficiently because of low and unpredictable production during the past …
