報(bào)告內(nèi)容摘要：

Current methods for enhancing hydrocarbon production and CO2 storage in shale reservoirs often rely on conventional fluid flow models based on Darcy’s law. However, these models do not account for the critical physics of fluid dynamics in nanopores within shale. For instance, designing gas injection into shale reservoirs is still based on “conventional thinking” concepts related to minimum miscibility pressure, which assumes advection-dominated flow. This talk delves into the critical nanopore physics influencing mass transport, phase behavior, and mixing injected gases and hydrocarbons, ultimately aiding hydrocarbon recovery. It’s imperative to adopt “unconventional thinking” for “unconventional reservoirs” like shales, where fluids undergo various phenomena such as molecular diffusion, viscous flow, Knudsen diffusion, adsorption, and nano-confinement. By acknowledging these phenomena, we can better understand recovery mechanisms and achieve more accurate predictions of hydrocarbon production, thereby explaining unusual shale reservoir behaviors. The main takeaway from this lecture is the necessity of shifting from “conventional thinking” to “unconventional thinking” for the effective development of “unconventional reservoirs.”
