Production Patterns of Eagle Ford Shale Gas: Decline Curve Analysis Using 1084 Wells
This paper analyzes and quantifies characteristic production behavior using historical data from 1084 shale gas wells in the Eagle Ford shale play from 2010 to 2014. Decline curve analysis, using Hyperbolic and Stretched Exponential models, are used to derive average decline rates and other characteristic parameters for shale gas wells. Both Hyperbolic and Stretched Exponential models fit well ...
متن کاملA Study of Shale Wettability Using NMR Measurements
Shale gas and oil are significant unconventional energy resources in the United States. Because of their low porosity and permeability, as well as the complex pore systems in organic rich shale formations, their petrophysical properties are not fully understood. Further, it is well known that wettability influences many aspects of reservoir characteristics, especially hydrocarbon storage and re...
متن کاملWater use for Shale-gas production in Texas, U.S.
Shale-gas production using hydraulic fracturing of mostly horizontal wells has led to considerable controversy over water-resource and environmental impacts. The study objective was to quantify net water use for shale-gas production using data from Texas, which is the dominant producer of shale gas in the U.S. with a focus on three major plays: the Barnett Shale (~15,000 wells, mid-2011), Texas...
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 کاملRemote sensing of fugitive methane emissions from oil and gas production in North American tight geologic formations
In the past decade, there has been a massive growth in the horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing of shale gas and tight oil reservoirs to exploit formerly inaccessible or unprofitable energy resources in rock formations with low permeability. In North America, these unconventional domestic sources of natural gas and oil provide an opportunity to achieve energy self-sufficiency and to red...
