UFM‐Based Simulation of Competitive Multi‐Fracture Propagation in Horizontal Wells
Simulation schematic of Competitive Multi‐Fracture Propagation in Horizontal Wells. ABSTRACT Multi‐stage hydraulic fracturing in horizontal wells is vital for stimulating unconventional reservoirs, yet uneven fracture propagation often restricts the effective communication volume of the reservoir.

Volume fracturing of deep shale gas horizontal wells
Deep shale gas reservoirs buried underground with depth being more than 3500 m are characterized by high in-situ stress, large horizontal stress difference, complex distribution of bedding and natural cracks, and strong rock plasticity.

ABSTRACT Hydraulic fracturing technology is widely used in Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) projects to induce fractures and enhance the permeability of thermal reservoirs. The hydraulic fracturing process of hot dry rock (HDR) is actually a multiphysics coupling process that couples the heat transfer field, seepage field, stress field, and damage ...

ABSTRACT Although the conversion of end‐of‐lifetime fractured hydrocarbon wells to geothermal wells has gained a strong momentum in research, it is necessary to perform thorough technical assessments of well conversion before pilot testing. The objective of the study was to perform such an assessment on converting fractured horizontal hydrocarbon wells

Carbon Storage in Fold‐and‐Thrust Belts: An Overlooked Gigatonne Storage Opportunity
ABSTRACT This study presents numerical investigations of the trapping characteristics of fold‐and‐thrust belt structures, defining three carbon capture and storage (CCS) play types that could be used to store commercial volumes (millions of tonnes) of CO2.
