A Geomechanical Study of the Mississippian Boone Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The Boone Formation in northwest Arkansas is a chert-limestone sequence analogous to the subsurface Mississippi Lime reservoir in parts of Oklahoma and Kansas. It has low permeability and produces via horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing.

Characterization of the permeability evolution of hard and soft rocks under hydro‐mechanical coupling conditions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The permeability variation of rocks during complete stress–strain processes was investigated. A mathematical model describing the influence of rock damage on permeability was constructed. The permeability–stress relationship between soft rock and hard rock was proposed.

Strain‐based modeling and analysis for rock blasting and geomechanics applications

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a novel strain‐based modeling approach for blasting and geomechanical applications, using measurable variables like particle velocity, strain, and displacement. By bypassing complex constitutive relations, strain‐based models capture critical blasting trends and full‐blast design parameters with minimal calibration.

Numerical investigation of the correlations of hydraulic and elastic characteristics in diverse carbonate rock types

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
We use the linear Boolean model and the discrete Fourier transformation approach to generate various carbonate rocks. The lattice Boltzmann method and the finite element method are applied to calculate permeability and elastic wave velocity, respectively.

Damage modeling of CO2 injection well interfaces under coupled thermal, hydraulic and mechanical behavior

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper presents an investigation of CO2 injection well damage evolution considering different injection temperatures and the presence of a pre‐existing defect. The main outcome is that the accurate prediction of well leakage risk requires characteristics such as initial defects to be understood and represented in any modeling efforts. Abstract This

Machine Learning-Assisted Comparative Analysis of Fracture Propagation Mechanisms in CO2 and Hydraulic Fracturing of Acid-Treated Tight Sandstone

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Carbon dioxide (CO2) fracturing and acid treatment are currently considered promising approaches to overcome the challenge of excessively high initiation pressure during conventional hydraulic fracturing in tight sandstone gas reservoirs.

Hydraulic Fracturing in Porous and Fractured Rocks

open access: yes, 2022
There are various methods to determine in situ stress parameters, each having its own advantages and limitations. Among the methods available, the hydraulic fracturing method is the most adopted method for in situ stress measurements because of its simplicity and reliability.
