Special Issues, Collections and Topics in MDPI journals
I am pleased to invite you to contribute to a Special Issue of Processes (MDPI) entitled "Geological and Engineering Problems in the Development of Unconventional Oil and Gas Reservoirs (2nd Edition)". This Special Issue aims to bring together cutting-edge research on the latest challenges and advancements in unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir exploration and development.
As a Guest Editor, I encourage you to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies on topics related to the following:
* Reservoir Characterization: Petrophysical, geomechanical, and geochemical evaluations.
* Seismic and Well Log Interpretation: 2D/3D seismic analysis, fracture modeling, and log-based reservoir assessment.
* Exploration and Development Strategies: Advances in hydraulic fracturing, drilling technologies, and enhanced recovery methods.
* Basin Analysis and Petroleum Systems: Source rock evaluation, migration pathways, and unconventional resource assessment.
* Machine Learning and AI Applications: Predictive modeling for reservoir performance and optimization.
This Special Issue provides a great opportunity for you to showcase your research to a global audience, contributing to the advancement of unconventional reservoir studies.
I sincerely hope that you will consider submitting your valuable work to this Special Issue. You may send your manuscript immediately or at any point before the deadline. All papers will be reviewed and published on an ongoing basis upon receipt. Please feel free to share this invitation with your colleagues and research teams. Should you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Looking forward to your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. 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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
