Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and computer-implemented methods are provided for the sensing and prediction of properties of source rock. Disclosed here is a method of predicting the maturity of a source rock that includes obtaining a plurality of data of a sample source rock from a plurality of data acquisition devices placed in vicinity of the sample source rock and analyzing the received data using a predictive correlation to determine maturity of the sample source rock. The predictive correlation is generated by applying a machine learning model to correlate the plurality of data acquired from a plurality of representative source rocks with a plurality of properties of the plurality of representative source rocks.

Abstract: Examples of nano-level evaluation of kerogen-rich reservoir rock are described. A micro-scale beam is formed from kerogen-rich reservoir rock. The beam has reservoir rock and kerogen, which has polymeric properties. A maximum dimension of the micro-scale beam is at most 1000 micrometers. A mechanical experiment that includes a tension test or a compression test is performed on the micro-scale beam. The mechanical experiment is imaged using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). A material parameter of the kerogen in the micro-scale beam is determined based on results of the mechanical experiment and images obtained responsive to the imaging. The material parameter includes a behavior of the kerogen in response to the mechanical experiment. The behavior of the kerogen can be used to determine, among other things, the energy required to break kerogen in a kerogen-rich shale to improve hydraulic fracturing efficiency.

Abstract: A method of determining a risk of corrosion and scale formation of tubing in a wellbore includes receiving, from a plurality of first sensors positioned at a downhole location of a wellbore, first production stream information and receiving, from a plurality of second sensors positioned at an uphole location, second production stream information. The method also includes performing a material balance to determine a first value representing a difference between a first production steam flow rate at the downhole location and a second production stream flow rate at the uphole location. The method also includes determining a second value representing a critical metal ion concentration of the production stream and, based on a result of comparing the first value with a threshold and based on the second value, determining a third value representing a risk of corrosion and scale formation at the tubing disposed within the wellbore.
