Working on fractured reservoir characterization, including tight sandstone and fractured basement. I am also working on tight sandstone diagenesis and reservoir quality evaluation. Methods I use include petrography, SEM-CL, fluid inclusion micro thermometry, Image logs, and integrated statistics and machine learning techniques.
Current Research Projects
Fracture evolution and progressive diagenesis in low porosity rocks
Past Research Projects
Characterizing bedding parallel fractures in shale: morphology, aperture size distribution
