Analysis and Modeling of Proppant Transport in Inclined Hydraulic Fractures

, 2018
The understanding of proppant transport in fractures plays a critical role in estimating propped fracture dimensions and performance. Modeling of such processes is challenging because of the complex interactions between fluid, proppant particles and ...

Physical simulation of proppant transportation in artificial fractures of coal seam

Youqicang pingjia yu kaifa, 2020
In order to explore the influence of proppant settlement on the laying form of sand in coal seam cracks, the physical simulation is used to study the rules of proppant settlement and migration based on the previous researches.

Numerical Study of Proppant Transport with Supercritical CO₂ in Fracture

Shiyou jixie, 2018
Supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2) fracturing is one of the new waterless fracturing technologies, which has been drawn much attention because of its environmental friendly and highly efficient advantages. However, the capacity and behavior of proppant transport

An experimental study of proppant transport mechanisms to the pump intake in low-flow oil wells

Petroleum Research
The exploitation of low-flow oil wells following hydraulic fracturing is often hindered by residual proppant and proppant production during early production phases, which can infiltrate pumps and drastically shorten their service life.

ANALYSIS AND DIAGNOSTIC OF PROPPANT FLOWBACK IN THE ORITO FIELD, COLOMBIA

CT&F Ciencia, Tecnología & Futuro
Hydraulic fracturing is a conventional practice for production enhancement in low production and damaged wells. Proppant flowback has been a concern in hydraulic fracturing since proppant began to be used as fracture supporting material.
