Shale oil is a promising alternative unconventional energy to conventional fossil fuels. Its
exploration and production are critical to improve the present energy consumption pattern …

Tight sandstone reservoirs typically contain a wide pore throat sizes ranging from the nano-
scale to micro-scale, and have complex pore geometry and pore throat structure …

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has been applied widely and successfully in
conventional and unconventional reservoirs, and can be used to investigate petrophysical …

The exploitation of shale gas has been a hot topic, and the understanding of water
occurrence and pore size distribution in shale reservoirs plays a crucial role in efficiently …

Abstract Few 1D T 2 and 2D T 1-T 2 Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies have
focused on oil-bearing shales with complex constituents and a deeper understanding of the …

The volatility of light hydrocarbons means that the conventional dichloromethane (DCM)
extraction method may underestimate shale oil content, thereby limiting its usefulness in …

Abstract Characterization of microscopic pore system of organic-rich shales is of great
importance for understanding the occurrence mechanism and flow behavior of shale oil …

To better evaluate the reservoir quality and optimize shale gas extraction, it is necessary to
quantitatively characterize pore structure in shale reservoirs using complementary methods …

Understanding of pore structure and microscopic flow mechanism at pore‐scale is
significant for enhancing oil recovery by carbon dioxide (CO2) flooding. Herein, the pore …

Characterizing the microscopic occurrence and distribution of in-situ pore water and oil is
crucial for resource estimation and development method selection of shale oil. In this paper …
