This course covers geologic and engineering concepts, methodology, and technology used to characterize, evaluate and manage naturally-fractured reservoirs. Applications and limitations of geologic and ...

Seismic inversion techniques have become instrumental in interpreting subsurface properties by converting seismic reflection data into quantitative rock physics parameters. With particular emphasis on ...

Due to the discontinuity and multi-scale of fracture porous media (FPM), fluid transport in the naturally fractured reservoir (NFR) is more complex than in the conventional reservoirs. Based on the ...

This chapter addresses methods for the remote detection and characterization of fractures in the subsurface. These indirect detection methods are mainly geophysical in nature and rely on the physical ...

My goal is to make significant contributions to science and society by conducting and publishing geologic research in collaboration with other investigators, by training new scientists, and by ...

ABERDEEN, Scotland (Reuters) - Hurricane Energy has announced first oil at its Lancaster field off Scotland, the first such success for so-called fractured basement reservoirs in Britain and a major ...
