Multimodal Characterization of the Anisotropic Behaviors of Shale Rocks
Shale rocks are the source rocks for many world’s most important energy resources, i.e., oil and natural gas. Understanding the geomechanical properties of shale rocks, including the anisotropic behaviors, is crucial to develop the shale energy extraction technologies. This paper describes the multimodal characterization of the anisotropic behaviors of a typical gas shale rock in Ohio, USA. The multiple approaches, including contact angle test, micro-indentation test, non-invasive wave speed test, and drilling test, are employed and compared between parallel and perpendicular directions related to bedding planes. The results show that the first three approaches can successfully identify the anisotropic properties of gas shale rock regarding the surface energy, hardness, and elastic properties. The drilling test has great potential to characterize the anisotropic behaviors of the shale rocks.
