Fracture Modeling of Shale Oil and Gas Reservoirs in Texas
Energies, 2023 Formation fracturing is the method of choice for developing shale oil and gas reservoirs that constitute a gigantic resource in the U.S.A. and many other countries but are characterized by a low permeability in the nano-Darcy range. The oil production of

Modeling proppant flow in fractures using LIGGGHTS, a scalable granular simulator [PDF]
, 2014 Proppant flowback in fractures under confining pressures is not well understood and difficult to reproduce in a laboratory setting. Improper management of proppant flowback leads to flow restrictions near the well bore, poor fracture conductivity and ...

Preparation and Properties of Lightweight Amphiphobic Proppant for Hydraulic Fracturing. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel)The wettability of the proppant is crucial in optimizing the flowback of fracturing fluids and improving the recovery of the produced hydrocarbons. Neutral wet proppants have been proven to improve the fluid flow by reducing the interaction between the ...

Field Application of a Water-Based Consolidation System for Remediation of Proppant Flowback
, 2010 Post-stimulation proppant-flowback problems have been a major issue in both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. In coalbed methane-gas (CBM) wells that use pumps and plungers to dewater coal, proppant flowback with produced fluid could lead to ...

Model for Fracturing Fluid Flowback and Characterization of Flowback Mechanisms [PDF]
, 2015 A large volume of fracturing fluid that may include slick water and various sorts of additives is injected into shale formations along with proppant to create hydraulic fractures which define a stimulated shale volume a shale gas well will actually drain.

Investigation of Solids Flowback after Hydraulic Fracturing and Remedial Treatments
, 2011 One of the major concerns with hydraulic fracturing treatments has been the flowback of proppant and solids at various stages after the treatment. To mitigate this problem, it is necessary to understand the factors causing the proppant to flow back ...
