Study of Geology-Engineering Integration Fracturing Design Based on Material Point Method

2021
Due to terrestrial deposited, the tight-oil-reservoir in North Songliao Basin has strong heterogeneity. In view of this characteristic, this paper studied on geology-engineering integration based on material point method, and confirmed reasonable parameters and fracturing models, to increase the efficiency of volume fracturing.

Behaviour of fractures in hard rocks — A study by surface geology and radial VES method

Geoexploration, 1983
Abstract In hard rock terrain the exploration of groundwater is essentially the detection of thick weathered residuum or of zones of intense jointing and fracturing and hence is extremely complex. The present study incorporates the radial vertical electrical sounding (VES) method in understanding the behaviour of rock fracturing at shallow depths in ...

Predicting hydrology of fractured rock masses from geology

2000
Fracture network connectivity often dominates movement rate, flow volume, and mass transport through rock masses. These networks influence the effectiveness of petroleum reservoir development, safe disposal of nuclear waste, delineation of water supply or establishment of well-head protection plans, recovery from geothermal reservoirs, solution mining,

Methods and applications of fracture trace analysis in the quantification of structural geology

Geological Magazine, 1969
SUMMARYNaturally occurring linear features recognisable on aerial photographs may be related to bedrock tectonics. The identification and analysis of such linear elements, “megajoints”, reveals much information about the style and dimensions of subsurface geologic structures.

Production Geology as a Tool for Monitoring Water Influx in a Compartmentalized California Monterey Fractured Reservoir

SPE Western Regional Meeting, 2016
Abstract This paper through a case study exemplifies the use of some common sense reservoir engineering methods using performance data in characterizing heterogeneity and compartmentalization in a complex fractured reservoir producing from the Monterey formation. The field is highly faulted and water influx has been a source of energy in

At the Sharp End of Fractured Granites: A Critical Geology for Critical Times

The geosciences have been positioned as integral to a ‘whole society’ transition that includes the decarbonisation of energy systems. Geothermal energy - which relies on a knowledge of the dynamism of rocks in the subsurface including the movement of fluids through fractures, physio-chemical interactions, and thermal gradients – has been offered as a ...
