  • Global Chemical Kinetics of Fossil Fuels

    How to Model Maturation and Pyrolysis

    by Alan K. Burnham ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book covers the origin and chemical structure of sedimentary organic matter, how that structure relates to appropriate chemical reaction models, how to obtain reaction data uncontaminated by heat and mass transfer, and how to convert that data into global kinetic models that extrapolate over wide temperature ranges. It also shows applications for in-situ and above-ground processing of oil ... Read more

  • Fractured Vuggy Carbonate Reservoir Simulation

    by Jun Yao, Zhao-Qin Huang ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book solves the open problems in fluid flow modeling through the fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs. Fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs usually have complex pore structures, which contain not only matrix and fractures but also the vugs and cavities. Since the vugs and cavities are irregular in shape and vary in diameter from millimeters to meters, modeling fluid flow through fractured ... Read more

  • Multi-scale Quantitative Diagenesis and Impacts on Heterogeneity of Carbonate Reservoir Rocks

    by Fadi Henri Nader ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book is both a review and a look to the future, highlighting challenges for better predicting quantitatively the impact of diagenesis on reservoir rocks. Classical diagenesis studies make use of a wide range of descriptive analytical techniques to explain specific, relatively time-framed fluid-rock interaction processes, and deduce their impacts on reservoir rocks. Future operational ... Read more
