Abstract: Abstract Massive micro fractures (MFs) developed in the ultra-tight formations (such as shale/tight reservoirs), which provide preferential channels for the fluids flow. Accurate characterization of such pore-fracture systems and suitable pore network models are the… read more here.

Abstract: Imbibition is widely recognized as an effective process for enhancing oil recovery in shale reservoirs. However, shale formations often feature complex multi-scale laminar structures, including micro-fractures, and distinct wettability characteristics in organic and inorganic pores.… read more here.
