TLDR
In this paper, three different methods of low pressure nitrogen adsorption, mercury porosimetry and gas expansion were used for pore structure characterization of gas shales, and the results showed that there is not any consistency between similar parameters like effective porosity or pore size distribution.

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.

Investigation of pore structure and fractal characteristics of organic-rich shale reservoirs: A case study of Lower Cambrian Qiongzhusi formation in Malong block of eastern Yunnan Province, South China

TL;DR: In order to study pore structure and fractal characteristics of the organic-rich marine shale, fourteen shale samples from the Lower Cambrian Qiongzhusi formation in Malong block of eastern Yunnan province were investigated by organic geochemical analysis (total organic carbon content analysis and thermal maturity analysis), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, porosity and permeability tests, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), low-pressure nitrogen adsorption and methane adaption experiments.

Nanoscale pore structure characterization of the Bakken shale in the USA

TL;DR: In this paper, the pore structures of unconventional reservoirs such as shale can assist in estimating their elastic transport and storage properties, thus enhancing the hydrocarbon recovery from such massive resources, and the results showed that all range of pore sizes: micro ( 50nm) exist in the Bakken shale samples.
