The energy industry has primarily depended on a heuristic approach-rather than a systematic approach-to optimize and tackle the various challenges when developing new and improving the performance of existing unconventional reservoirs. Industry needs accurate estimations of well production performance and of the cumulative estimated ultimate reserves, accounting for uncertainty. This Special Issue presents 10 original and high-quality research articles related to the modeling of unconventional reservoirs, which showcase advanced methods for fractured reservoir simulation, and improved production forecasting techniques.History of engineering and technologybicssc(re)fracturingAustin Chalkbottomhole pressurebubble point pressureChangning shale gascluster efficiencyCyclic CH4 injectiondiscrete fracture modeldrained rock volumeEagle Ford shaleEDFMembedded discrete fracture modelenhanced oil recoveryenhanced permeabilityEURflow modelingflow modelsfracture modelingfracture porosityfracture propertiesfractured reservoirhydraulic fracture closurehydraulic fractureshydraulic fracturinghydraulic fracturing test siteinfill wellsline detectionlow-permeability reservoirmicroseismicmidland basinmimetic finite difference methodmolecular diffusionmultiple fracture propagationnanopore confinementnatural fracturesnaturally fractured reservoirsparticle pathsperforating numberpore networkpressure communicationpressure depletionproduction history matchingproduction upliftssemi-analytical modelsensitivity analysisshale gasstaged fracturing horizontal wellstimulated reservoir volumetime of flightwell interferencewell spacingwolfcamp formationHistory of engineering and technologyKhanal Aadiauth1306025Weijermars RuudauthYu WeiauthBOOK9910367737903321Improved Reservoir Models and Production Forecasting Techniques for Multi-Stage Fractured Hydrocarbon Wells3028144UNINA
