Homework, ENPE 573 and ENCH 619, Unconventional Gas exploitation Instructor: Roberto Aguilera Due: Wednesday January 21, 2015 at 6:00 PM • Get familiar with the website of CSUR (www.csur.com). They have some ‘Understanding Booklets’ on unconventional resources that will be of your interest for this course. These are free. You do not have to turn these booklets in to the TAs. These are for your own information. • Download from ‘onepetro’ and get familiar with SPE papers: 165360-PA (Aguilera), 114174-MS (Aguilera) and 2007-208 (Aguilera and Harding). These papers are free for students registered in this course. You do not have to turn these papers in to the TAs. These are for your own information • Get familiar with the most recent website of BP statistical review of world energy (2014). Develop a crossplot of natural gas production in billion cubic feet per day between 1970 and 2013 for the world and also for Canada. Print your plots. Black and white is fine. Write down briefly on your graphs any observations you might have regarding the contrast you observe between the 2 curves you prepared. You have to submit these plots to the TAs on Wednesday January 21 at 6:00 PM.

Get familiar with the website of CSUR (www.csur.com). They have
some Understanding Booklets on unconventional resources that
will be of your interest for this course. These are free. You do not
have to turn these booklets in to the TAs. These are for your own
information.
Download from onepetro and get familiar with SPE papers:
165360-PA (Aguilera), 114174-MS (Aguilera) and 2007-208
(Aguilera and Harding). These papers are free for students
registered in this course. You do not have to turn these papers in
to the TAs. These are for your own information
Get familiar with the most recent website of BP statistical review
of world energy (2014). Develop a crossplot of natural gas
production in billion cubic feet per day between 1970 and 2013
for the world and also for Canada. Print your plots. Black and
white is fine. Write down briefly on your graphs any observations
you might have regarding the contrast you observe between the 2
curves you prepared. You have to submit these plots to the TAs
on Wednesday January 21 at 6:00 PM.

Download from onepetro and get familiar with SPE papers:
119620-MS (Thompson et al), 137416-MS (Taylor et al) and
142727-MS (Leguizamon and Aguilera). These papers are free for
students registered in this course. You do not have to turn these
papers in to the TAs. These are for your own information (Next
week lecture is on hydraulic fracturing of unconventional
reservoirs).
Reproduce the columns shown on Table 2 of SPE 114174 and
plotted in Figure 5 (blue color). Results from the core experiments
shown by black boxes in Figure 5 are as follows:
Prepare a plot similar to Figure 5. Run exactly the same
calculations but assuming that mf is equal to 1.0. Plot your results
in the same graph and explain the difference.
Calculate the formation factor (F) for both cores and the model
(using both values of mf) and plot all your results on a standard
log-log cross-plot of F vs. porosity.
