Robust implementations of the 3D-EDFM algorithm for reservoir simulation with complicated hydraulic fractures

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract The geometry of the subsurface hydraulic fracture is complicated which deviates from the conventional single pan shape. It can be in multi-wing shape by the formation heterogeneity and/or 3D fracture networks caused by the pre-exising natural fractures.

Study of hydraulic fracturing in an anisotropic poroelastic medium via a hybrid EDFM-XFEM approach

Computers and Geotechnics, 2019
Abstract In this paper, we investigate the effects of poroelastic properties and permeability on hydraulic fracturing in an anisotropic medium. A hybrid approach combining the EDFM (embedded discrete fracture model) and XFEM (extended finite element method) is proposed. Fractures are embedded into a nonconforming grid used to determine the fluid flow

Parameterization of embedded discrete fracture models (EDFM) for efficient history matching of fractured reservoirs

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2021
Abstract Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) is a promising approach to describe the reservoirs with fractures. Conventional streamline-based inversion method has been limited to the dual-porosity models where the natural fractures are modeled implicitly and flow between matrix blocks is not accounted for.
