Total production. US tight oil production rose by 100 thousand b/d in May, to 7.2 million b/d (after upcoming revisions). This was almost a million b/d higher than a year earlier, when extremely low prices caused a significant part of production to be curtailed. But compared with the peak in November 2019, output fell by almost 1.5 million b/d.
Decline curve analysis (DCA) is a widely used method to estimate the production performance and ultimate recovery of conventional and unconventional reservoirs. Due to the unconventional nature of shale wells, traditional decline curve methods are not ideal for analyzing their production decline behavior. In response, …

Secondly, the dominated factors are determined based on the developed factor system and field data. Thirdly, data processing is conducted to check and improve data quality.
Following [1]; the production of shale oil increased exponentially until growth became linear.In March 2014 the United States economy produced on average 8.2 millions of barrels/day (mbd) and imported 7.3 mbd. Of the total 15.5 mbd of crude oil, 3.6 mbd were produced from shale oil, accounting for half of the United States oil …
Shale gas is projected to account for more than 40% of the country's total natural gas production by 2040, which would make China the second-largest shale gas producer in the world after the United States. Argentina's commercial shale gas production was just 0.07 Bcf/d at the end of 2015, but foreign investment in shale gas production is ...
Barnett shale average daily gas production rate per well in MSCF/day (normalized to time zero) (y-axis) against time (months) (x-axis) grouped by DOFP ( Baihly et al., 2010 ). In this paper, horizontal Barnett shale wells with a DOFP from 2008 to 2014 were used to understand decline trends and forecast EUR. The EUR for DOFP 2008 and …
1. Introduction. Production forecast and reserve estimation are essential for the development of the tight and shale reservoirs (Apiwatcharoenkul et al., 2016; Makinde and Lee, 2017).Different techniques have been used to analyze and predict well after-stimulation production in these types of reservoirs including pressure and rate transient …
