The geomechanical behavior of salt rocks is a significant concern during drilling and development operations in some hydrocarbon reservoirs and underground gas storage sites.In this study,the static and dynamic salt r...
Extensive reviews and cross-comparison studies are essential to analyze the emerging developments in a specific field of research.In the past decade,hydrocarbon exploration and exploitation from the shale reservoirs h...
The contribution of geomechanics to provide a rigorous quantification of porosity changes and associated permeability changes is often neglected when considering hydrocarbon production.However,it often has significant...
The consequences of sandstone reservoir rock failure may lead to sand production.This phenomenon can have negative impact on lifting cost and economic of any field development.Metal erosion due to sanding can lead to ...

Thermal fracturing could occur during cold CO2 injection into subsurface warm rock formations.It can be seen in a variety of fields such as carbon geo-sequestration,unconventional gas development,enhanced oil recovery...
The authors appreciate Mr.Andika Perbawa at KAUST,Saudi Arabia and Dr.Henry Pasaribu at Shell Global Solutions,Netherlands for their fruitful discussion.
A study performed by Marbun et al.[1]claimed that“A new methodology to predict fracture pressure from former calculations,MattheweKelly and Eaton are proposed.”Also,Marbun et al.'s paper stated that“A new value of ...
