Producing oil and gas from shale formations was enabled by continuous advancements in technology that unlocked the complexity of unconventional reservoirs. Todays crucial challenge is to learn how to characterize these resources with a well-integrated geoscience and engineering evaluation. This book aims to provide practical and actionable steps to enable readers to evaluate any unconventional reservoir from core to field scale and assess primary and enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The evaluation begins by characterizing the petroleum system to determine the target formations. Laboratory...
