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.
