Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book presents a comprehensive assessment of clastic sedimentology and its application to reservoir geology. It covers the theoretical foundations of the topic and its use for scientists as well as professionals in the field. Further, it addresses all aspects of reservoir sedimentology, clastic sequence stratigraphy, sedimentation, reservoir diagenesis and heterogeneity, as well as depositional systems (alluvial, fluvial, lacustrine, delta, sandy coast, neritic, deep-water) in detail.The research team responsible for this book has been investigating clastic sedimentology for more than three decades and consists of highly published and cited authors. The Chinese edition of this book has been a great success, and is popular among sedimentologists and petroleum geologists alike.
Sediment Compaction and Applications in Petroleum Geoscience

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book discusses how sediments compact with depth and applications of the compaction trends. Porosity reduction in sediment conveniently indicates the degree of sediments compacted after deposition. Published empirical curves- the compaction curves- are depth-wise porosity variation through which change in pore spaces from sediment surface to deeper depths e.g. up to 6 km can be delineated. Porosity is derived from well logs. Compaction curves, referred to as the Normal Porosity Profile of shales, sandstones and shale bearing sandstones of different models are reviewed along with the different mechanical and chemical compaction processes. These compaction models reveals how porosity reduces depth-wise and the probable reason for anomalous zones. Deviation from these normal compaction trends may indicate abnormal pressure scenarios: either over- or under pressure. We highlight global examples of abnormal pressure scenarios along with the different primary- and secondary mechanisms. Well logs and cores being the direct measurements of porosity, well log is the only cost-effective way to determine porosity of subsurface rocks. Certain well logs can detect overpressure and the preference of one log above the other helps reduce the uncertainty. Apart from delineation of under-compacted zones by comparing the modeled- with the actual compaction, porosity data can also estimate erosion.

This book presents data driven approaches to improve drilling performance in geothermal, coiled tubing, and conventional operations. It begins with transformer models for forecasting rate of penetration in geothermal wells, followed by methods for predicting both penetration and downhole shock in coiled tubing drilling. A variational autoencoder framework is introduced for diagnosing resistivity tool anomalies to support reliable geosteering. Subsequent chapters examine the use of deep autoencoders and separation networks to improve electromagnetic telemetry signals. This book also details synthetic data driven models combined with physics-based degradation approaches to forecast the remaining useful life of drilling equipment. Hybrid strategies for generating synthetic data are discussed to extend model training in scenarios with limited failure records. Each chapter blends technical insights with real-world case studies, demonstrating how these methods reduce non-productive time, improve tool reliability, and strengthen decision making in drilling operations.
Cyclic Gas Injection and Withdrawal in Underground Gas Storage: Reservoir Stress State and Wellbore Stability

This book addresses the issues related to the operation of underground gas storage facilities (UGSF). A geomechanical approach has been developed to investigate the deformation processes in an UGSF reservoir during the cyclic gas injection and withdrawal. It has been established that the stress state of the reservoir as a whole, changing with cyclic changes in reservoir, has a significant impact on the mechanical processes in the bottom hole zone (BHZ).Calculations of the stresses occurring in BHZ have been carried out for both uniform and non-uniform natural stress fields. The orientation of horizontal wells relative to the principal axes of the original natural stress field has been considered.Physical modeling of deformation and filtration processes in BHZ of UGSF wells during gas injection and withdrawal has been conducted using a unique Triaxial Independent Loading Test System (TILTS). In these experiments, real three-dimensional stress states were created in the rock specimens arising in BHZ as result of change pressure in the well and reservoir pressure. A significant distinguishing feature of the developed geomechanical approach is the consideration of the dependence of reservoir rocks filtration characteristics on the stresses. This dependence is determined experimentally during physical modeling on the TILTS simulating real deformation processes in the UGSF wells during gas injection/withdrawal. A methodology has been developed to assess the possibility and method of enhancing the permeability of reservoir rocks by creating stresses of required type and level in the BHZ, particularly through the effective application of the DUR method.The results of experimental studies on the deformation and strength properties of reservoir rocks of specific UGSFs are presented. During experiments using the "hollow cylinder" scheme on specimens of weakly cemented sandstones, a non-typical strength anisotropy was discovered. This type of anisotropy can cause directed in two opposite directions breakouts on walls of well drilled in the reservoir with a uniform natural stress field. The potential manifestation of this discovered type of strength anisotropy in the rocks must be considered when designing and operating wells to prevent failure and sand production, as well as during the analysis of well measurements.The developed geomechanical approach and the physical and mathematical modeling of deformation and filtration processes in BHZ based on it allow for predictive recommendations to ensure the optimal operation of UGSFs, the stability of wellbores, maximum allowable pressure drawdowns, well flow rates, and the prevention of sand production at the studied UGSF.The book will be of interest to students, postgraduate students, scientists and specialists in the oil and gas industry.
