Empirical Relation for Capillary Pressure in Shale
Alipour, Mehdi K.; Kasha, Ahmed; Sakhaee-Pour, A.; Sadooni, Fadhil N.; Al-Kuwari, Hamad Al Saad ( Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) , 2022 , Article)Brooks and Corey (1964) and van Genuchten (1980) proposed the two most widely used relations for approximating capillary pressure. Petroleum engineers apply both, but they were originally proposed to understand the moisture ... -
Evaluation of the source rock potential of the Unyazah Formation (late Carboniferous-Early Permian) in Dukhan Field, Qatar
Al-Saad, Hamad; Al-Khafaji, Amer Jassim; Sadooni, Fadhil N. ( Taylor & Francis (Routledge) , 2019 , Article)Twenty samples were collected from the Unayzah Formation in three wells from Dukhan Field, Qatar.
