There are number of challenges in unconventional reservoir completions that will benefit from geomechanical considerations. Examples include complex hydraulic fracture development in naturally fractured reservoir, altered in situ stresses due to production, and reservoir re-stimulation, and coupled thermo-poro-mechanics processes.  Recognizing the critical need to understand fundamental mechanisms involved in unconventional reservoir development, the “Introduction to …

  The SPE Members in Transition Seminar Series is designed to include a selection of topics of interest to SPE members who are transitioning in between jobs during the current industry downturn or who are looking for new career opportunities.  The agenda for the eighteenth seminar in the series will include “Can’t Find the Opportunity …
