Produktbeschreibung
This book provides a comprehensive synthesis of advanced laboratory techniques tailored to reveal the complexities of shale properties. Highlighting state-of-the-art methods such as Rock-Eval pyrolysis, multi-scale imaging, spectroscopy, and geomechanical testing, it offers detailed insights into shale s organic matter, pore structure, and anisotropic behavior. The book bridges theoretical concepts with laboratory analyses, addressing critical topics like hydrocarbon generation, gas storage, and the feasibility of CO2 sequestration.

The geochemical, petrophysical, and geomechanical characterization of shales has revolutionized our understanding of these complex sedimentary rocks. As critical players in unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs and carbon sequestration, shales offer immense potential for energy security and climate change mitigation. However, their intricate mineralogical and textural heterogeneity poses significant challenges to accurate analysis and utilization.

Designed for researchers, students, and industry professionals, the book emphasizes both foundational principles and cutting-edge developments in shale analysis. Each chapter builds on the previous, offering an integrated approach to geochemical, petrophysical, and geomechanical characterization. Furthermore, it identifies knowledge gaps and challenges, providing a roadmap for future research.

A valuable resource for advancing unconventional resource recovery and carbon management strategies, this SpringerBrief equips readers with essential background knowledge to address contemporary energy and environmental challenges with precision and innovation.
Autorenporträt
Dr. Chinmay Sethi holds graduate and postgraduate degrees from Central University of Karnataka (India). He recently defended his Ph.D. thesis for his work on the organo-petrographic characteristics, source rock potential, and palaeo-depositional settings of shales of contrasting thermal maturities. Dr. Sethi’s research interests include organic petrology, source rock geochemistry, geomechanics, and CO2 storage. He has published multiple research articles in high-impact journals. His work has been presented at national and international conferences, where he has also received recognition, including a Best Paper Award at ICGEID 2024 hosted by IIT-Patna.  >60) and served in editorial roles with several high-ranking scientific journals.  Dr. Bodhisatwa Hazra holds a Ph.D. from the Indian School of Mines, Dhanbad, India. He subsequently worked as Postdoctoral Fellow at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, followed by a tenure as DST-Inspire Faculty at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. He is currently working as Senior Scientist at CSIR-Central Institute of Mining and Fuel Research (CIMFR), India. Dr. Hazra’s research expertise lies in organic geochemistry, organic petrology, petrophysics, CO2 storage, and geomechanics. In the year 2019, Dr. Hazra received the prestigious CSIR-Young Scientist Award. He also received the SERB International Research Experience (SIRE) award in 2023 to conduct research at the University of Kiel, Germany.  Dr. Mehdi Ostadhassan received his B.Sc. in petroleum exploration engineering from the Petroleum University of Technology (Iran), an M.Sc. in petroleum geophysics from IFP School (France), and a second M.Sc. in petroleum exploration engineering from PUT. He earned his Ph.D. in petroleum engineering from the University of North Dakota (USA). He began as Research Scientist at the Energy and Environmental Research Center and later joined the Department of Petroleum Engineering at UND, where he became Associate Professor in 2019. He then joined Northeast Petroleum University (China) as Distinguished Professor and is affiliated with the Unconventional Oil and Gas Institute. In 2021, he was awarded the prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Experienced Research Fellowship and is currently based at Kiel University, Germany. He secured $3M+ USD in public/private funding and collaborates globally with universities and private companies. He studies how subsurface forces influence fluids and organic/inorganic matter.
