Connectivity of pores in shale reservoirs and its implications for the development of shale gas: A case study of the Lower Silurian Longmaxi Formation in the southern Sichuan Basin

The unconnected gas-bearing pores in shale gas reservoirs may be transformed into “potential recoverable pores” after large scale hydraulic fracturing. However, the mainstream pore classification methods of shale gas reservoirs, do not take the unconnected pores into account, which impacts the evalu...
