Review of flow rate estimates of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill

TL;DR: By quantifying the amount of oil at different locations (wellhead, ocean surface, and atmosphere), it is concluded that just over 2 million barrels of oil (after accounting for containment) and all of the released methane remained in the deep sea.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Transient Laboratory Method for Determining the Hydraulic Properties of "Tight"Rocks-I, Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a general analytical solution for the transient pulse test is presented, graphically illustrated by plots of dimensionless variables for several cases of interest, as limiting cases, the more restrictive analytical solutions that the previous investigators have derived.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of Aquifer Transmissivity From Earth Tide Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived an analytical solution that expressed the phase shift as a function of the aquifer transmissivity, storage coefficient, well radius, and the period of the harmonic disturbance.
Journal ArticleDOI

A reservoir analysis of the Denver earthquakes: A case of induced seismicity

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis based on the assumption that fluid flow in the fractured reservoir can be approximated by flow in a porous medium is presented, and the configuration and hydrologic properties of the reservoir are determined from two lines of evidence: (1) locations of earthquake hypocenters determined by seismic arrays installed at the Arsenal and (2) observed long-term decline in fluid levels in the injection well.
Journal ArticleDOI

A transient laboratory method for determining the hydraulic properties of ‘tight’ rocks—II. Application

TL;DR: In this paper, a general analytical solution for the transient pulse test was presented and a graphical method for analyzing data from a test to obtain the hydraulic properties of the sample was presented.
