Cet article étudie plusieurs aspects du comportement poroélastique des roches dans le cadre de la mécanique des milieux poreux saturés définie par Biot. Les lois de comportement de la poroélasticité linéaire et non linéaire sont tout d’abord établies à partir d’une décomposition fondamentale de l’état de contraintes, qui permet de relier de façon claire les modèles linéaire et non linéaire. Les notions de contrainte effective et de compressibilité sont abordées. Une loi de comportement incrémentale linéaire est définie à partir de la loi de comportement non linéaire proposée en introduisant des propriétés élastiques tangentes. Ces coefficients sont par nature exprimés en fonction des déformations et de la pression de pore, mais l’on établit ici des expressions explicites en fonction des contraintes et de la pression de pore. Des essais effectués sur un grès de réservoir illustrent ces différents points.

Abstract — Poromechanics: From Linear to Nonlinear Poroelasticity and Poroviscoelasticity — Due to the impact on productivity and oil in place estimates, reliable modeling of rock behavior is essential in reservoir engineering. This paper examines several aspects of rock poroelastic behavior within the framework of Biot’s mechanics of fluid saturated porous solids. Constitutive laws of linear and nonlinear poroelasticity are first determined from a fundamental stress decomposition, which allows to clearly connect linear and nonlinear models. Concept of effective stress and rock compressibility are considered. Linear incremental stress-strain relations are derived from the proposed nonlinear constitutive law by defining tangent elastic properties. These characteristics are naturally functions of strains and pore pressure, but explicit expressions as functions of stresses and pore pressure are established herein. Experiments performed on a reservoir sandstone illustrate these points. A constitutive law of poroviscoelasticity is finally presented and applied to experimental data obtained on clay. Keywords: rock mechanics, poroelasticity, nonlinear poroelasticity, tangent properties, poroviscoelasticity, effective stress, sandstone, shale. 532 Oil & Gas Science and Technology – Rev.

In 2013, this year marking the 50th anniversary of the death of Karl von Terzaghi (1883-1963), we hold BIOT-5 in memory of this “Grandfather of Poromechanics,” the founder of consolidation experiments and theoretical soil mechanics in general (see the Introduction for further historical remarks). We are very grateful that a significant number of brilliant scientists were ready to organize mini-symposia on topics that they rated as most interesting and stimulating. These mini- symposia are the natural backbone of BIOT-5’s scientific program, their titles and organizer affiliations representing the scientific and geographic breadth of BIOT-5 (see the Introduction for all names and further details). The design and set-up of BIOT-5 was strongly supported by the Local Organizing Committee, the International Scientific Committee, and the Advisory Committee, comprising all the earlier Biot conference hosts, in particular by Franz Ulm (M.I.T.), as well as by Alex Cheng (University of Mississippi) and Younane Abousleiman (University of Oklahoma), the latter two having been so instrumental in launching, with the help of Madame Nadine Biot, the Biot conference series, and staying the ever-motivated “good spirits” behind the scenes.

Brioschi” Politecnico di Milano via Bonardi 9, 20133 Milano, Italy. Abstract The interaction between a fluid and a poroelastic structure is a complex problem that couples the Navier-Stokes equations for the fluid with the Biot system for the structure. The finite element approximation of this problem is involved due to the fact that both subproblems are indefinite. In this work, we design residual-based stabilization tech- niques for the Biot system, that have been motivated using the variational multiscale approach. Then, we state the monolithic Navier-Stokes/Biot system with the appro- priate transmission conditions on the interface. We consider both monolithic solvers and heterogeneous domain decomposition strategies. Different domain decomposition methods are used and their convergence has been analyzed for a simplified problem. The efficiency of these methods has been compared for a test problem motivated from hemodynamics applications.

At the core of our approach is the University of Hong Kong, Grant/Award enriched Galerkin discretization of the fluid mass balance equation, whereby Number: 201801159010 elementwise constant functions are augmented to the standard continuous Galerkin discretization. The resulting numerical method provides local mass conservation by construction with a usually affordable cost added to the con- tinuous Galerkin counterpart. Two equivalent formulations are developed using total Lagrangian and updated Lagrangian approaches. The local mass conserva- tion property of the proposed method is verified through numerical examples involving saturated and unsaturated flow in porous media at finite strains.

Microcomputed tomography can be used to characterize the relevant Computed tomography geometric attributes, with the resolution that is sufficiently refined for realistic simulation of transport properties Hydraulic permeability based on the 3D image. In this study, we adopted a hybrid computation scheme that is based on a hierarchical Formation factor multi-scale approach. The specimen was partitioned into cubic sub-volumes for pore-scale simulation of hy- draulic permeability and formation factor using the lattice Boltzmann method. The pore-scale results were then linked with finite element simulation in a homogenized scheme to compute and upscale the transport properties to specimen scale. The simulated permeability and formation factor have magnitude and anisotropy that are in good agreement with experimental rock physics data. Together with simulated and measured values of con- nected porosity and specific surface area, they provide useful insights into how pore geometry controls the evolution of the transport properties.
