Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Stages and Sequencing in Unconventional Formations

Autor Ahmed Alzahabi, Mohamed Y. Soliman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2021
Shale gas and/or oil play identification is subject to many screening processes for characteristics such as porosity, permeability, and brittleness. Evaluating shale gas and/or oil reservoirs and identifying potential sweet spots (portions of the reservoir rock that have high-quality kerogen content and brittle rock) requires taking into consideration multiple rock, reservoir, and geological parameters that govern production. The early determination of sweet spots for well site selection and fracturing in shale reservoirs is a challenge for many operators. With this limitation in mind, Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Stages and Sequencing in Unconventional Formations develops an approach to improve the industry’s ability to evaluate shale gas and oil plays and is structured to lead the reader from general shale oil and gas characteristics to detailed sweet-spot classifications. The approach uses a new candidate selection and evaluation algorithm and screening criteria based on key geomechanical, petrophysical, and geochemical parameters and indices to obtain results consistent with existing shale plays and gain insights on the best development strategies going forward. The work introduces new criteria that accurately guide the development process in unconventional reservoirs in addition to reducing uncertainty and cost.

Descriere

The work introduces an approach for shale gas and oil play screening criteria. It combines a mathematically developed approach with geomechanical and geochemical developed indices. It identifies operationally approved methods from analogous reservoir development to increase the potential recovery of shale natural gas and oil accumulations.
