Optimization of multistage fractured horizontal well in tight oil based on embedded discrete fracture model

Computers & Chemical Engineering, 2018
Abstract Optimizing multistage fractured horizontal wells (MFHW) can tap the full potential of tight oil reservoirs. Although recent studies have introduced various frameworks, most of the significant parameters for MFHW are not optimized simultaneously, which may lead to actual performance that is far below expected performance, especially in ...

An efficient embedded discrete-fracture model for 2D anisotropic reservoir simulation

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019
Abstract In this study, we present an embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) for an in-house reservoir simulator that incorporates the effect of each fracture with arbitrary orientations, lengths and fracture conductivities. Instead of using the linear flow approximation for the EDFM, the interflows between local matrix grids and fracture elements ...

Simulation of shale gas transport and production with complex fractures using embedded discrete fracture model

AIChE Journal, 2018
The goal of this study is to develop a new model to simulate gas and water transport in shale nanopores and complex fractures. A new gas diffusivity equation was first derived to consider multiple important physical mechanisms such as gas desorption, gas slippage and diffusion, and non‐Darcy flow.

Embedded Discrete Fracture Model for Investigating the Effect of Fractures on Gas Hydrate Production

open access: yesEnergy & Fuels, 2023
Fractures play key roles as a flow pathway in marine sediments, closely related to fluid migration and gas hydrate accumulation. The methane behavior in the presence of fractures was investigated by numerical simulation. However, the method of expressing

Streamline tracing and applications in embedded discrete fracture models

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2020
Abstract Fractures play important role in unconventional resources by influencing the fluid flow pattern underground. Streamline-based flow diagnostic is important to the history matching or operational optimization process of fractured reservoirs.

Particle Transport Scheme for Embedded Discrete Fracture Models

ECMOR XVII, 2020
Summary Embedded Discrete Fracture Models (EDFMs) for fractured porous media are preferable over Discrete Fracture Models if complex fracture geometries are to be fully resolved and the fractures and matrix discretizations are conformal. Lagrangian particle-tracking schemes offer convenient means for solute transport modeling because in EDFM frameworks,

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.
