Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Physics-based modelling and representative experiments are fundamental to studying the subsurface, particularly oil and gas reservoirs. To consider the conditions in the subsurface and their influence on production and well integrity as well as the time frame over which a well is producing, simulations offer a way to extend our understanding of experimental results and gain results at the appropriate time frame.
Modelling and experiments, from pore-scale to reservoir-scale, related to unconventional resources especially focused on increasing production and maintaining production, including ensuring wellbore integrity and isolation of produced fluids, are most desired. All works related to experimental and modelling of fluid flow, heat transfer, consideration of the fracture network, and reservoir engineering are welcomed.

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. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
