It offers a comprehensive yet practical discussion and description of natural fractures, their origins, characteristics, and effects on hydrocarbon reservoirs. It starts by introducing the reader to basic definitions and classifications of fractures and fractured reservoirs. It then provides an outline for fractured-reservoir characterization and analysis, and goes on to introduce the way fractures impact operational activities.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWell organized and clearly illustrated throughout, \u003ci\u003eApplied Concepts in Fractured Reservoirs \u003c\/i\u003estarts with a section on understanding natural fractures. It looks at the different types, their dimensions, and the mechanics of fracturing rock in extension and shear. The next section provides information on measuring and analyzing fractures in reservoirs. It covers: logging core for fractures; taking, measuring, and analyzing fracture data; new core vs. archived core; CT scans; comparing fracture data from outcrops, core, and logs; and more. The last part examines the effects of natural fractures on reservoirs, including: the permeability behavior of individual fractures and fracture systems; fracture volumetrics; effects of fractures on drilling and coring; and the interaction between natural and hydraulic fractures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eTeaches readers to understand and evaluate fractures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompiles and synthesizes various concepts and descriptions scattered in literature and synthesizes them with unpublished oil-field observations and data, along with the authors’ own experience\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridges some of the gaps between reservoir engineers and geologists\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides an invaluable reference for geologists and engineers who need to understand naturally fractured reservoirs in order to efficiently extract hydrocarbons\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrated in full color throughout\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCompanion volume to the \u003ci\u003eAtlas of Natural and Induced Fractures in Core\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn C.
