Interference fracturing: Nonuniform distributions of perforation clusters that promote simultaneous growth of multiple hydraulic fractures [PDF]
One of the important hurdles in horizontal-well stimulation is the generation of hydraulic fractures (HFs) from all perforation clusters within a given stage, despite the challenges posed by stress shadowing and reservoir variability.

A Random‐XFEM technique modeling of hydraulic fracture interaction with natural void
In this paper, a Random‐XFEM technology was employed to simulate hydraulic fracture interaction with the natural void in a random field of Young's modulus.

Regional Flow Simulation in Fractured Aquifers Using Stress-Dependent Parameters [PDF]
A model function relating effective stress to fracture permeability is developed from Hooke's law, implemented in the tensorial form of Darcy's law, and used to evaluate discharge rates and pressure distributions at regional scales.

Hydraulic fracturing or also know as fracking, the removal of natural gas and oil from shale rock, took off in the 1990s, but the anti-fracking movement didn't start taking notice until 2005. Fracking began to take place in the the south and the middle of the United States, because those areas are not known for have environmental activists.

Dynamic development of hydrofracture [PDF]
Many natural examples of complex joint and vein networks in layered sedimentary rocks are hydrofractures that form by a combination of pore fluid overpressure and tectonic stresses.

Hydraulic fracturing proppants [PDF]
Abstract Hydrocarbon reservoirs can be classified as unconventional or conventional depending on the oil and gas extraction difficulty, such as the need for high-cost technology and techniques. The hydrocarbon extraction from bituminous shale, commonly known as shale gas/oil, is performed by using the hydraulic fracturing technique in unconventional ...

Influence of asperities on fluid and thermal flow in a fracture: a coupled Lattice Boltzmann study
The characteristics of the hydro-thermal flow which occurs when a cold fluid is injected into a hot fractured bedrock depend on the morphology of the fracture.

Fracture Propagation Driven by Fluid Outflow from a Low-permeability Aquifer [PDF]
Deep saline aquifers are promising geological reservoirs for CO2 sequestration if they do not leak. The absence of leakage is provided by the caprock integrity.
