Basin-specific geochemistry to promote unconventional efficiency
This project focused on two strategic geochemistry-based research thrusts and provided new knowledge in the following areas: (i) mitigation of scale precipitation in shale reservoirs; and (ii) improvement of hydrocarbon extractions from tight matrix pore space. Additionally, we developed a new acoustic monitoring approach to nondestructively monitor shale alteration in-situ in the laboratory and subsurface.
