Effects of nanopore geometry on confined water flow: A view of lattice Boltzmann simulation

Wen Zhao et al.

Summary: Water flow in nanoscale channels is affected by strong water-wall interactions, leading to deviations from conventional continuum flow.

Molecular Dynamics Study on CO2 Storage in Water-Filled Kerogen Nanopores in Shale Reservoirs: Effects of Kerogen Maturity and Pore Size

Wenhui Li et al.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of kerogen maturity and pore size on CO2 storage mechanism and capacity in water-filled kerogen nanopores using molecular dynamics simulation. The results showed that CO2 storage mechanisms differ in pores of different sizes, with enhanced storage capacity in 1 nm pores due to strong interactions between kerogen and CO2. Additionally, CO2 clusters near the kerogen surface in larger pores increased overall CO2 storage capacity.

Gas Flow Models of Shale: A Review

Farzam Javadpour et al.

Summary: Conventional flow models based on Darcy's flow physics are inadequate in accurately modeling shale gas production data, leading to the proposal of various gas-flow models specifically for shale reservoirs. The microscopic pores in shale, known as nanopores, primarily associated with organic matter, contribute to a dual pore system that increases the complexity of gas flow. In addition to viscous flow, shale's permeability results in gas slippage and Knudsen diffusion, adding more flow processes beyond Darcy's law.

Shale Wettability: Data Sets, Challenges, and Outlook

Muhammad Arif et al.

Summary: This review examines recent data sets on shale wettability using contact angle measurements, identifying influencing factors and limitations associated with contact angle methods. The study concludes that shale/oil/brine systems demonstrate water-wet to strongly oil-wet behaviors, while shale/CO2/brine systems are weakly water-wet to CO2-wet, and shale/CH4/brine systems are weakly water-wet. Factors contributing to the variability in shale wettability include operating conditions, organic content, mineral matter, and thermal maturity. This review provides a concise analysis of shale wettability data and offers insights into current technology and future developments in this field.

Pore-Scale Perspective of Gas/Water Two-Phase Flow in Shale

Tao Zhang et al.

Summary: Transport behaviors of single-phase gas and single-phase water at the nanoscale deviate from the predictions of continuum flow theory, especially when both gases and liquids flow simultaneously in pores or networks of pores. A pseudopotential-based lattice Boltzmann method was developed to simulate gas/water two-phase flow at the pore scale, incorporating fluid/fluid and fluid/solid interactions to capture microscopic interactions among phases. The study demonstrated the successful application of the proposed method in modeling gas/water two-phase flow in systems like single nanopores, parallel nanopores, and nanoporous media.

Fracturing flowback fluids from shale gas wells in western chongqing: Geochemical analyses and relevance for exploration & development

Yonghong Fu et al.

Summary: Studying the behavior and composition of fracturing flowback water is crucial for understanding in situ water-rock interactions and evaluating the success of fracturing operations. Analysis of flowback water from three wells in western Chongqing revealed that with increasing flowback time, ion concentrations and total salinity increased, and stable isotopic ratios became heavier. The study also showed that the total salinity of the flowback water is a result of mixing high-saline formation water with low-salinity fracturing water.

The role of supercritical carbon dioxide for recovery of shale gas and sequestration in gas shale reservoirs

Qiao Lyu et al.

Summary: The development of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling techniques has expanded the exploitation of shale gas resources, but potential environmental issues with water usage have prompted research on supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) as an alternative stimulation fluid. SC-CO2 has shown promise in enhancing shale gas recovery and potentially sequestering CO2 in shale reservoirs, thus reducing carbon emissions. Understanding shale-CO2 interactions and the long-term effects of SC-CO2 injection is crucial for the efficiency and environmental impact of this technology.
