Gas condensate relative permeabilities in propped fracture porous media: coupling versus inertia

, 2008
Hydraulic fracturing is one of the most common well stimulation techniques for gas-condensate reservoirs. In recent years considerable effort has been directed towards understanding of flow around hydraulically fractured wells especially for tight gas ...

The impact of forced closure on proppant distribution of hydraulic fracturing in shale formations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering
Forced closure is widely used in conventional oil and gas reservoirs to promote uniform proppant placement. However, due to the extremely low permeability of shale formations, fracture closure requires more time, and the application of forced closure in ...

Fracture mechanics of volcanic eruptions [PDF]

, 2009
Seismology is a key tool in the forecasting of volcanic eruptions. The onset of an eruption is often preceded and accompanied by an increase in local seismic activity, driven by fracturing within the edifice.

Experimental Investigation of Stress-Dependent Permeability in Discretely and Fully Propped Shale Fractures

: Discretely propped fractures are common in shale gas reservoirs because limited fracture aperture, bedding heterogeneity, proppant settling, bridging, and fracture closure can prevent the formation of continuous proppant packs.
