Abstract
The most significant geo-energy sources in the world today continue to be oil, gas, and geothermal reservoirs. To increase oil and gas reserves and production, new theories are constantly being developed in the laboratory and new technologies are being applied in the oilfield. This Special Issue compiles recent research focusing on cutting-edge ideas and technology in oil, gas, and geothermal reservoirs, covering the fields of well drilling, cementing, hydraulic fracturing, improved oil recovery, conformance control, and geothermal energy development.
