Unconventional Reservoir Studies

Unconventional reservoirs such as tight gas sands, shale gas, shale oil, and coal bed methane require a comprehensive understanding and the incorporation of new physics for accurate modeling, including:

• Desorption
• Adsorption
• Diffusion through nanopores
• Stress dependent rock properties

Our studies involve the use of compositional reservoir simulation, coupled geomechanical modeling, and diffusion incorporated models. The results provide production history matching and forecasting, as well as help to increase hydrocarbon recovery and reserves estimation.
