Multiphase flow and underpressured shale at the Bruce nuclear site, Ontario, Canada Multiphase flow and underpressured shale at the Bruce nuclear site, Ontario, Canada
Hydraulic testing has revealed dramatic underpressures in Paleozoic shales and carbonates at the Bruce nuclear site in Ontario. Although evidence from both laboratory and field studies suggests that a small amount of gas-phase methane could be present in the shale, previous studies examining causal linkages between the gas phase and the underpressure have been inconclusive. To better...
