Elsevier - Health Sciences Division Hydraulic Fracture Geometry Characterization Based On Distributed Fiber Optic Strain Measurements : Modeling And Field Data For Unconventional And Geothermal Wells Elsevier - Health Sciences Division Hydraulic Fracture Geometry Characterization Based On Distributed Fiber Optic Strain Measurements : Modeling And Field Data For Unconventional And Geothermal Wells 98.44 GBP Distributed fiber optic strain measurements, revolutionizing subsurface monitoring and hydraulic fracture characterization, offers a resource for geophysicists, reservoir engineers, and completion engineers.This cutting-edge technology leads the way in innovation with its ability to detect rock deformation and changes in strain along optical fibers, providing exceptional spatial resolution and measurement sensitivity.Its applications are broad and impactful, ranging from monitoring subsurface carbon storage and enhancing geothermal systems to advancing unconventional reservoir development.Despite the technology's advancements, accurately interpreting data of strain measurement from the hydraulic fracturing process poses a significant challenge due to the complex conditions in the subsurface.This book presents a comprehensive approach for analyzing strain responses from both horizontal and vertical monitoring wells to quantify hydraulic fracture propagation and the evolution of fracture geometry.The development of a forward geomechanics model significantly enhance the understanding of the field data.The introduction of a groundbreaking inversion model allows for in-depth data analysis and maximizes the dataset's value.Moreover, this book applies its findings through two field studies in unconventional reservoirs, illustrating the practical application of the technology.These case studies highlight effective field data interpretation and the critical insights that can be obtained.This book aims to elucidate data interpretation and analysis of complex subsurface measurements related to hydraulic fracture propagation, providing engineers with a novel perspective on subsurface exploration.
Elsevier - Health Sciences Division European Glacial Landscapes : The Last Deglaciation Elsevier - Health Sciences Division European Glacial Landscapes : The Last Deglaciation 105.8 GBP European Glacial Landscapes: Last Deglaciation brings together relevant experts on the history of glaciers and their impact on the landscape of the main European regions.Soon after the Last Glacial Maximum, a rapid process of the glacial retreat began throughout Europe.This was interrupted several times by abrupt climate cooling, which caused rapid, although moderate, re-advance of the glaciers, until the beginning of the Holocene when the climate became relatively stable and warm.These successive glacial advances and retreats during the Last Deglaciation have shaped much of the European landscape, reflecting abrupt climatic fluctuations. As our knowledge of abrupt climate changes since the Last Glacial Maximum progresses, new uncertainties arise.These are critical for understanding how climate changes disseminate through Europe, such as the lag between climate changes and the expansion or contraction of glaciers as well as the role of the large continental ice sheets on the European climate.All these contributions are included in the book, which is an invaluable resource for geographers, geologists, environmental scientists, paleoclimatologists, as well as researchers in physics and earth sciences.
