• What is fundamental mechanism of liquid production from shales?
• How liquids are produced from ultra-low permeability rocks?
• How can we optimize production and recovery?
1. Mechanistic Evaluation
2. Geologic data analysis and geomechanics
3. Production evaluation and optimization
Potential Target Shale
Plays
What I’ll be doing:
• Compare and contrast production characteristics of different plays based on their fluid and geologic characteristics
• Logs and cores• Cross sections• Structure maps• Isopach maps• Mineral mix diagrams for various shales• Porosity types and significance• Structure and stress field knowledge; fracture
orientations
