Summary
This proposed special issue aims to explore the integration of geology and engineering disciplines in the context of unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. Unconventional reservoirs, including shale gas, tight gas, and oil sands, require a multidisciplinary approach to effectively characterize, optimize, and evaluate their production potential. This special issue seeks to gather cutting-edge research on the integration of geology and engineering for the development of innovative techniques and methodologies in the exploration, production, and reservoir management of unconventional hydrocarbon resources.
The special issue invites researchers, engineers, and industry professionals to contribute their latest findings, methodologies, and case studies in the following research areas:
Efficient simulation techniques for modeling unconventional reservoirs
Production system optimization strategies for unconventional reservoirs
Simulation methods for hydraulic fracturing and fracture propagation in unconventional formations
Reservoir evaluation and characterization techniques for unconventional reservoirs
Novel approaches in integrated geology-engineering for unconventional reservoirs
Advanced data analysis and machine learning applications in reservoir management
Environmental considerations and sustainable practices in unconventional reservoir development
Case studies showcasing successful applications of integrated geology-engineering in unconventional reservoirs
This special issue aims to provide a platform for the exchange of knowledge and ideas among researchers and practitioners in the field of integrated geology-engineering for unconventional oil and gas reservoirs. The collection of articles will contribute to the advancement of efficient and sustainable practices, foster innovation, and enhance the understanding of the complex nature of unconventional reservoirs.
