Failure Behavior and Constitutive Model of Weakly Consolidated Soft Rock

Mining areas in western China are mainly located in soft rock strata with poor bearing capacity. In order to make the deformation failure mechanism and strength behavior of weakly consolidated soft mudstone and coal rock hosted in Ili No. 4 mine of Xinjiang area clear, some uniaxial and triaxial compression tests were carried out according to the samples of rocks gathered in the studied area, r...

Sand Production Control in Sandstone Reservoirs Using a Modified Urea-formaldehyde Re

Several techniques have been used for sand production control in sandstone reservoirs.The main objective of this research is to present a suitable resin to be used as a consolidation agent in oil reservoirs. To achieve this purpose, urea-formaldehyde resin, phenol-formaldehyde resin, and modified urea-formaldehyde resin were selected to be studied. Core samples were made by the sand sample prov...

Investigation on Flow Rule and Productivity in Poorly Consolidated Reservoirs

Based on the production data and statistical information of a practical oilfield, it is proved that the flow rule in wormhole or extra wormhole can be regarded as a high speed Non-Darcy flow, and used the Forchheimer equation to represent. The Forchheimer model is superior to the exponent model and Mazaheri model. Then, the productivity equation of poorly consolidated reservoir with wormhole is...
