Overview

This book is a comprehensive overview of shale gas science and engineering, covering key facets such as the geological and geochemical characteristics of shale gas reservoirs, gas transport mechanisms in shale nanopores, mathematical models and case studies for gas production, and enhancing gas recovery methods. The author presents a systematic summarization of gas flow and production in shale gas reservoirs from micropore to macro-reservoir scale. The research methods encompass experiments, well-testing, numerical simulation, and mathematical derivation. Designed primarily as a reference work for petroleum industry practitioners and researchers, this book is equally valuable for new entrants and seasoned professionals. It is also an excellent resource for undergraduate and postgraduate courses and of interest to libraries at universities offering gas, oil, and general energy courses. Whether you're seeking an introduction to the field or a detailed exploration of advanced concepts, this book provides a valuable and complete guide to shale gas science and engineering.

Author Information

Dr. Chaohua Guo received his B.Sc. in Petroleum Engineering from China University of Petroleum (East China) in 2011 and M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Petroleum Engineering from Missouri University of Science and Technology (USA) in 2015. He joined the Institute of Oil and Natural Gas Engineering at the China University of Geosciences (Wuhan) in 2016. He currently is an associate professor of petroleum engineering (since 2019). Meanwhile, he serves as an associate editor or editorial member for several international journals. He received the Project of National Science Foundation of China in 2017. He has managed and completed more than five projects to date on oil and gas reservoir engineering. Dr. Guo focuses on the gas transport in shale gas nanopores and the enhancing shale recovery by using carbon di oxide injection. He has published more than 30 peer-refereed journal articles. Therefore, this book is useful for people who are interested in unconventional shale gas reservoirs or related energy resources.
