Capillary pressure correction of cuttings
Alessa, S.; Sakhaee-Pour, A.; Sadooni, F.N.; Al-Kuwari, H.A. ( Elsevier , 2022 , Article)The accurate characterization of capillary pressure is essential in determining multiphase flow behavior in subsurface conditions. It is also essential in quantifying reservoir rock quality, reservoir fluid saturations, ... -
Characterization of the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of Virgibacillus strains capable of mediating the formation of high Mg-calcite and protodolomite
Al Disi Z.A.; Zouari N.; Dittrich M.; Jaoua S.; Al-Kuwari H.A.S.; Bontognali T.R.R.... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)The origin of dolomite –a common mineral in the geological record– is the subject of an ongoing debate. Among different hypotheses, it has been proposed that extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) excreted by microbes ... -
Characterizing fracture toughness using machine learning
Alipour, M.; Esatyana, E.; Sakhaee-Pour, A.; Sadooni, F. N.; Al-Kuwari, H. A. ( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article)The existing models for fracture toughness characterization based on nanoindentations that account for the fracture length are limited to simple (ideal) geometries that are absent in shales. The present study proposes two ... -
Microbial community composition and dolomite formation in the hypersaline microbial mats of the Khor Al-Adaid sabkhas, Qatar
DiLoreto Z.A.; Bontognali T.R.R.; Al Disi Z.A.; Al-Kuwari H.A.S.; Williford K.H.; Strohmenger C.J.; Sadooni F.; Palermo C.; Rivers J.M.; McKenzie J.A.; Tuite M.; Dittrich M.... more authors ... less authors ( Springer Tokyo , 2019 , Article)The Khor Al-Adaid sabkha in Qatar is among the rare extreme environments on Earth where it is possible to study the formation of dolomite-a carbonate mineral whose origin remains unclear and has been hypothetically linked ...
