Hydraulic Fracturing and Reservoir Analysis

The subsurface is complex, describing it requires high-dimensional parameterizations. This chapter considers various decision scenarios over the lifecycle of a large oil field of a Wintershall asset in Libya. It aims to evaluate remediation efficacy of acetate injection to immobilize uranium in United States. This case has elements in common with the shallow geothermal applications except that now the model complexity increases dramatically due to the existence of complex chemical reactions. Based on some initial estimates, expert opinions, geological understanding, and geostatistical modeling, the chapter builds a prior model for all uncertainty components in the groundwater model. The chapter focuses on the use of groundwater as heat exchanger for climatization of building in Belgium. It deals with two real field cases: a publicly available dataset the Barnett Shale near Dallas, Texas, and a real field case provided by Anadarko, one of the largest shale producers in the United States.
