Hydraulic Fracturing in a Naturally Fractured Reservoir
International Petroleum Conference and Exhibition of Mexico, 1994Abstract Hydraulic fracturing of wells in naturally fractured reservoirs can differ dramatically from fracturing wells in conventional isotropic reservoirs. Fluid leakoff is the primary difference. In conventional reservoirs, fluid leakoff is controlled by reservoir matrix and fracture fluid parameters.

Shale Reservoirs Multi-Fracture Fracturing Technique and Studies on Reservoirs Stresses
Advanced Materials Research, 2014Theoretical studies have shown that the generation of the hydraulic fractures reduces or even reverses the stress anisotropy near the fractures and results in increasing the complexity of fractures. A finite element model was established in which the pore pressure elements were used to simulate the behavior of porous media and the pore pressure ...

Development of a special connection fracture model for reservoir simulation of fractured reservoirs
Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019Abstract The significant world oil and gas reserves related to naturally fractured carbonate reservoirs adds new frontiers to the development of upscaling and numerical simulation procedures for reducing simulation time. This work aims to accurately represent fractured reservoirs in reservoir simulators within a shorter simulation time when compared ...

Fractured Reservoir Simulation
Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal, 1980Abstract This paper describes the development of a three-dimensional (3D), three-phase model for simulating the flow of water, oil, and gas in a naturally fractured reservoir. A dual porosity system is used to describe the fluids present in the fractures and matrix blocks.

Evaluation of Fractured Reservoirs
Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal, 1969Abstract Efforts were made to find improved means for locating fractures penetrated by a wellbore and for estimating fracture reservoir volume. The four approaches to the problem utilized acoustic logs, porosity estimates from different sources, transient pressure and fluid flow data, and resistivity logs.

Fractured-basement reservoirs are igneous or metamorphic rocks having no matrix porosity and low secondary fracture porosity of ~2–3% and generally are devoid of adequate void space to hold sufficient volume of hydrocarbons for economic production.

T035 FRACTURED RESERVOIR MODELING Introduction 1 A fractured reservoir analysis pointed out some major problems as: fracture porosity evaluation matrix block size matrix-fracture exchange factor and the equivalent permeability evaluation. Moreover interaction between fractures at different scale is another critical aspect for production in fractured ...

Naturally Fractured Reservoirs
2019Currently, there are numerous of authors defined the fracture from a different perspective, However, from the geo-mechanical viewpoint; a fracture is defined as a surface in which a loss of solidity has taken place.

Fracturing Carbonate Reservoirs: Acidising Fracturing or Fracturing with Proppants?
SPE Asia Pacific Hydraulic Fracturing Conference, 2016Abstract Carbonate reservoir with low permeability is developed using fracturing technology to effectively stimulate the reservoir for a higher productivity. However, as the carbonate reservoir features extreme heterogeneity, not every fracture is created equally as is obtainable through acidizing fracturing or using proppant.

Integrated Reservoir Characterisation of a Fractured Carbonate Reservoir
Proceedings of SPE International Petroleum Conference and Exhibition in Mexico, 2000Abstract One of the most important issues for the characterisation of a reservoir and the assessment of the fluid flow behaviour is the role of faults, fractures, and micro-fractures. At different scales these reservoir features have a tremendous impact on the reservoir drainage and in the overall productivity of the field1.
