This book introduces the newly built, built-in self-discipline of fracture and in-situ pressure characterization of hydrocarbon reservoirs, via sixteen well-illustrated case reviews. those disguise a variety of instruments, from borehole scale (logs and middle) to reservoir scale (e.g. three-D and 4-D seismic). It additionally covers floor reports (outcrop and distant sensing). furthermore, it addresses the impression of fractures and in-situ stresses on fluid flows and their simulation. the topic that this quantity offers with is gaining expanding curiosity with the development of applied sciences and transferring barriers of marginal fields into more difficult floor. Fractures and their reaction to current-day in-situ stresses became a vital a part of reservoir characterization in deep tight reservoirs. moreover, maturing reservoirs, that have been regarded as 'conventional' at discovery, are showing indicators attribute of fractures and/or geomechanical contribution. This has result in the necessity to delineate the fractures and the stresses in those reservoirs and revise reservoir administration therefore. This quantity can be of curiosity to a vast variety of readers from either educational and commercial institutes, who're discovering and working with hydrocarbon reservoir characterization, simulation and administration.
