Summary
Reservoir Geomechanics
is the study of the
Mechanical behavior of geological formations
under the influence of
Fluid extraction and injection processes
, crucial for optimizing
Hydrocarbon Recovery
and ensuring the
Structural integrity of reservoirs
. It integrates principles from geophysics,
Rock Mechanics
, and
Petroleum Engineering
to predict and manage
Subsurface stresses
and deformations, minimizing risks such as subsidence,
Wellbore instability
, and
Induced Seismicity
.
