Shale gas and hydrofracturing.

چکیده
About the Cover: Black carbon (BC) containing particles have an important role to play in climate change; directly heating through absorption of radiation, and/or indirectly cooling through the seeding of clouds. New research in this issue, using a mobile laboratory indicates that gasoline powered cars may produce more BC than previously considered. Transmission electron microscopy background image of BC: Kevin Thomson, National Research Council Canada. See Liggio and co-workers, p 4819. View the article. Table of

Exergy, Energy, and Gas Flow Analysis of Hydrofractured Shale Gas Extraction
The objectives of this study are to (a) evaluate the exergy and energy demand for constructing a hydrofractured shale gas well and determine its typical exergy and energy returns on investment (ExROI and EROI), and (b) compute the gas flow and intrinsic exergy analysis in the shale gas matrix and created fractures. An exergy system analysis of construction of a typical U.S. shale gas well, whic...
متن کاملIdentification and Evaluation of Unconventional Hydrocarbon Reserves: Examples from Zagros and Central Iran Basins
It is notable that over the past decade, proven reserves of natural gas have dramatically increased as higher prices and advances in technology have turned previously unrecoverable resources into major sources of domestic production. Moreover, the decline in crude oil reserves has significantly slowed over the past decade. Therefore, there would be an end to the conventional hydrocarbon resourc...
متن کاملUnconventional Shale-gas plays and their characterization through 3-D seismic attributes and logs
Unconventional shale-gas plays are formed by fine-grained organic-rich shales of tight-porosity and ultralow permeability which act as the source, seal, and the reservoir rock. The shale-as-reservoir has its beginnings in 1820 but commercial shale-gas wells were drilled in 1990s in Mississippian Barnett Shale of USA by Mitchell Energy after prolonged (about 17 years) experimentations and advanc...
متن کاملLand application of hydrofracturing fluids damages a deciduous forest stand in West Virginia.
In June 2008, 303,000 L of hydrofracturing fluid from a natural gas well were applied to a 0.20-ha area of mixed hardwood forest on the Fernow Experimental Forest, West Virginia. During application, severe damage and mortality of ground vegetation was observed, followed about 10 d later by premature leaf drop by the overstory trees. Two years after fluid application, 56% of the trees within the...
متن کاملShale Gas Productivity Predicting Model and Analysis of Influence Factors
Abstract: In order to find the dynamic characteristics of shale gas reservoirs and improve shale gas well production, it is very important to research on shale gas seepage mechanism and production evaluation. Based on the shale gas seepage mechanism, adsorption and desorption characteristics, the diffusion mechanism and mass conservation theory in shale gas development, the dual pore medium sha...
