Understanding the creep behavior of shale via nano-DMA method

Understanding the creep behavior of shale is essential to precisely predict borehole instability issues and model fracturing of unconventional shale reservoirs. In this study, the creep behavior of shale in micron scale is investigated by integrating the nano-dynamic mechanical analysis (nano-DMA) g...

description Understanding the creep behavior of shale is essential to precisely predict borehole instability issues and model fracturing of unconventional shale reservoirs. In this study, the creep behavior of shale in micron scale is investigated by integrating the nano-dynamic mechanical analysis (nano-DMA) grid nanoindentation (15 × 15 indents) and data clustering techniques. The results showed that the creep displacement, the creep rate, and hardness, both can be related through a logarithmic function with creep time. Furthermore, contact creep modulus increased as the hardness or Young’s modulus increased. The clustering analysis revealed that three separate phases are present in the samples where Phase 1(clay/organic matter) has the smallest contact creep modulus and Phase 3 (quartz) the largest. While creep is in progress, the creep displacement, hardness and contact creep modulus of all three phases obey the logarithmic function. Under the same creep time, reduction in the contact creep modulus of Phase 3 appears to be faster than Phase 1 while the creep rate of Phase 3 is much less than Phase 1. Ultimately, contact creep modulus is better correlated with hardness than Young’s modulus.
