This course will introduce the fundamental mechanisms of, and recent developments in the various techniques used for stimulating and recovering unconventional oil and gas resources. We will consider unconventional reservoirs such as tight gas reservoirs, tight oil reservoirs, shale gas reservoirs, and shale oil reservoirs. The following recovery techniques will be covered: primary recovery techniques, multistage hydraulic fracturing stimulations, gas injection methods, and chemical injection ...
