Formation mechanism of proppant particle voidage distribution in hydraulic fracturing fractures

Meikuang Anquan, 2021
In order to understand the proppant particle voidage evolution of the hydraulic propped fractures, the numerical simulation method was used to simulate the compression process of the proppant particle in fracture under different closed stresses.

Modeling and monitoring injectivity evolution during cold CO2 injection with field evidence from aquistore carbon capture and storage operations

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This work integrates 5 years of field data from the Aquistore CCS project with a non‐isothermal THM modeling framework to explain how cold CO2 injection alters injectivity over time. The study shows that sustained cooling near the wellbore reduces effective stresses, promotes tensile micro‑cracking, and leads to semi‑reversible permeability enhancement
