The politics of hydraulic fracturing in Germany : party competition at different levels of government [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hydraulic fracturing has been practiced in Germany for decades, and several attempts have been made to legalize and regulate new drilling methods, which eventually led to the approval of a law to effectively ban this activity in 2016.

Hydraulic fracturing in ice boreholes: Theory and tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Hydraulic fracturing is the well-known phenomenon that can occur intentionally, as it is used in the petroleum industry to stimulate the flow of natural gas or oil, or naturally, for example, as a reason for calving of ice shelves.

Geomechanics of Unconventional Reservoirs: Hydraulic Fracturing and Nanoindentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Geomechanics is the study of the mechanical response of geologic formations subjected to injection, production, and storage of fluids in the subsurface. It plays a role in understanding formation integrity and the response to oil and gas depletion during

Recent comprehensive review for extended finite element method (XFEM) based on hydraulic fracturing models for unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020
Hydraulic fracturing has been around for several decades since 1860s. It is one of the methods used to recover unconventional gas reservoirs. Hydraulic fracturing design is a challenging task due to the reservoir heterogeneity, complicated geological ...

The Model for Calculating Pore Evaluation of Fractal Rock Body Under Hydraulic Fracturing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In general, the pore medium of rock has fractal characters. In order to calculate the change regulations of porosity and evaluation character of the rock under hydraulic fracturing accurately, in this paper, a new damage variable was defined to describe ...
