Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the massive consumption of conventional oil and gas resources, research on unconventional oil and gas resources of tight oil and gas, shale oil and gas, etc., has become of primary interest in the last decade. Development and production of these reservoirs is a capital and labor-intensive enterprise due to their low porosity and permeability, which prompts oil suppliers to seek advanced theories, methods, and technologies for increasing oil recovery. This Special Issue aims to present the latest progresses in this interesting area, in particular, fundamental theory and technology in enhancing recovery of tight and shale reservoirs, frontier fields of shale oil in situ conversion, natural gas hydrate, etc., including reservoir evaluation, fracturing and reconstruction, reservoir engineering and numerical simulation, CO2 enhanced oil recovery, oilfield chemical engineering, big data analysis and application, etc. We invite investigators to submit original research articles and review papers for publication in this Special Issue.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
