A review on pore structure characterization in tight sandstones

TL;DR: In this paper, the pore size distribution and 3D pore connectivity are evaluated from NMR and XCT analysis, and the NMR spectrum is also linked to the macroscopic performance, and pore network is determined from N 2 GA, and fractal theory is introduced to explain the irregularity and heterogeneity of pore throat structure characteristics.

Morphology, Genesis, and Distribution of Nanometer-Scale Pores in Siliceous Mudstones of the Mississippian Barnett Shale

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used scanning electron microscopy to characterize the pore system in the Barnett Shale of the Fort Worth Basin, Texas, showing that the pores in these rocks are dominantly nanometer in scale (nanopores).
