Mechanics of Oil and Gas Flow in Porous Media

Download or read book Mechanics of Oil and Gas Flow in Porous Media written by Dang Li and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-17 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses various aspects of percolation mechanics. It starts with the driving forces and driving modes and then examines in detail the steady state percolation of single-phase incompressible fluids, percolation law of natural gas and percolation of non-Newtonian fluids. Progressing from simple to complex concepts, it also analyzes Darcy’s law, providing a basis for the study of reservoir engineering, oil recovery engineering and reservoir numerical simulation. It serves as a textbook for undergraduate students majoring in petroleum engineering, petroleum geology and groundwater engineering, and offers a valuable reference guide for graduate students, researchers and technical engineers engaged in oil and gas exploration and development.
