The massive Marcellus shale is arguably the star of the Appalachian Basin plays. It is the largest natural gas play in the United States and also one of the deepest, located directly under the Mahantongo and Tully Limestone formations. The Marcellus Shale also overlaps its neighboring shale to the north, the Utica. Due to its immense natural gas holdings, the area has seen a large influx of ...

Marcellus Shale: About Marcellus Shale
The Marcellus shale is made up of sediments high in organic material. As this organic matter decayed, methane gas formed and dispersed throughout pores in the rock. About 300 million years ago, the pressure of the gas caused northeast-to-southwest fractures to form in the shale. A well drilled vertically into the Marcellus may cross one of these fractures, but new horizontal drilling ...

For this study, a Marcellus Shale reservoir is selected. Production and completions history of 160 wells are collected. First the study is performed on a single well where 70 percent of the information is used for neural network training purposes, 15% for calibration, and 15% for validation of the model. The results show that the smart model is able to precisely predict the start of the liquid ...
