This volume compiles advanced research on unconventional reservoir engineering, addressing hydraulic fracturing, CO2 utilization, and data-driven modeling. Integrating experiments, simulations, and machine learning (ML), it offers solutions to optimize hydrocarbon recovery and sustainability. 
-
Key themes include the following: 
(1) fracture mechanics, exploring fracture propagation in inter-salt shales, viscoplastic fracture behavior, and ML-guided fracture spacing; 
(2) CO2 applications, examining its dual role in EOR and storage via injection strategies, ML-predicted flooding outcomes, and CO2–water–rock interactions affecting reservoir integrity; 
(3) modeling innovations, such as VOF-based pore-scale multiphase flow simulations, ML-driven fracture optimization, and productivity forecasting in condensate-rich shales;
(4) practical advances, including nanoparticle–surfactant EOR systems, high-permeability streak detection in carbonates, coal creep analysis, and gas storage well-testing protocols.
