Experimental Study to Quantify Fracture Propagation in Hydraulic Fracturing Treatment. [PDF]

open access: yesACS Omega, 2022
Hydraulic fracturing plays an important role in the commercial development of unconventional oil and gas, which is directly related to the production of oil and gas wells. An accurate evaluation is critical for hydraulic fracturing, but it is urgent to propose a quantitative assessment of hydraulic fracturing fracture propagation for realizing ...

Fracture propagation characteristics in shale bedding planes within structurally complex zones [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
To address the unclear mechanisms of hydraulic fracture propagation in shale reservoirs with well-developed bedding and complex thin interbedded layers, this study first employed three-point bending tests combined with Digital Image Correlation ...

Fracture propagation characteristics and failure mechanisms of parallel-fractured sandstone. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep
It is important to study the fracture mechanism of fractured rocks. Uniaxial compression tests and discrete element numerical simulations were conducted on sandstone specimens with fixed dip angles and parallel fractures. With the help of acoustic emission detection technology, the effects of different fracture spacings and number of fractures on the ...

The Influence of the Distribution Characteristics of Complex Natural Fracture on the Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Morphology

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Natural fractures are common in unconventional reservoirs (e.g., tight oil and gas, shale oil and gas), for which hydraulic fracturing is the main exploitation method.

A Planar-3D Mathematical Model for Studying the Effect of Heterogeneity of Rock Fracture Toughness on Hydraulic Fracture Propagation: Early-Time Solution including the Stage before Propagation

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Among the studies of the effect of rock’s heterogeneity on hydraulic fracture propagation, very little information on the effects of the heterogeneity of rock’s fracture toughness is available. The objective of the present paper is to develop a planar-3D

Numerical simulation of the non‐Newtonian fracturing fluid influences on the fracture propagation

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2022
Hydraulic fracturing fracture propagation is the main factor affecting the fracturing effect. In view of the more diversified selection of fracturing fluid, the problem of fracture propagation in non‐Newtonian fluid fracturing is often encountered in ...

Simulation of 3D fracture propagation under I-II-III mixed-mode loading

open access: yesRock Mechanics Bulletin, 2023
Fracture propagation under mixed-mode loading conditions prevails in many natural geological processes and deep engineering projects, while the corresponding numerical simulation is very challenging in rock mechanics, especially in 3D cases.
