Integrative Understanding of Shale Gas ReservoirsAuthor(s): Kun Sang Lee, Tae Hong Kim\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer International Publishing AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer International Publishing AG\nISBN-13: 9783319292953, 978-3319292953\nSynopsis\nThis timely book begins with an overview of shale gas\nreservoir features such as natural fracture systems, multi-fractured horizontal\nwells, adsorption/desorption of methane, and non-linear flow within the\nreservoir. Geomechanical modelling, an aspect of importance in ultra-low\npermeability reservoirs, is also presented in detail.\n\nTaking these complex features of shale reservoirs into\naccount, the authors develop a numerical model, which is verified with field\ndata using the history matching technique. Based on this model, the pressure\ntransient and production characteristics of a fractured horizontal well in a\nshale gas reservoir are analysed with respect to reservoir and fracture\nproperties.
