Hydraulic fracture propagation in naturally fractured reservoirs: Complex fracture or fracture networks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2019
All reservoirs are fractured to some degree. Depending on the density, dimension, orientation and the cementation of natural fractures and the location where the hydraulic fracturing is executed, pre-existing natural fractures can impact hydraulic ...

The Investigation on Initiation and Propagation of Hydraulic Fractures in Shale Reservoir

open access: yesGeofluids, 2021
Hydraulic fracturing is a necessary technique for shale gas exploitation. In order to have efficient stimulation treatment, a complex fracture network has to be developed, whereas with rich bedding planes and natural fractures, the mechanism of forming a

On the influence of fluid rheology on hydraulic fracture

open access: yes, 2021
We analyse a problem of a hydraulic fracture driven by a non-Newtonian shear-thinning fluid. Fluid viscosity is described by the four-parameter truncated power-law model.
