UFM‐Based Simulation of Competitive Multi‐Fracture Propagation in Horizontal Wells

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 6069-6083, December 2025.
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.

Study of borehole stability of volcanic rock formation with the influence of multiple factors

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology
Borehole instability in igneous rock formation has attracted more and more attention in recent ten years. In order to understand the mechanism of wellbore instability in igneous formation, a borehole stability model is established by applying the thermal,

Prediction of the Optimal Drilling Mud Weight Based on the Normalized Yielded Zone Area (NYZA) in One of the Iranian Oil Fields

open access: yesWalailak Journal of Science and Technology, 2013
Hole problems experienced during the drilling phase of operations are often the consequence of mechanical wellbore instability. This leads to higher than necessary drilling costs.

Geomechanical Modeling of In-Situ Stresses Around a Borehole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper, we present a modelling of the in-situ stress state associated with the severe hole enlargement of a wellbore. Geomechanical information is relevant to assure wellbore stability, i.e., to prevent damages in the formation and later on ...

Data on cost analysis of drilling mud displacement during drilling operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The focus of this research was to present a data article for analyzing the cost of displacing a drilling fluid during the drilling operation. The cost of conventional Spud, KCl and Pseudo Oil base (POBM) muds used in drilling oil and gas wells are ...

Numerical Simulations of Hydraulic Fracturing in Carbonate‐Type Hot Dry Rock Reservoirs Based on the Coupled Thermo‐Hydraulic‐Mechanical‐Damage (THMD) Model

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 13, Issue 12, Page 5821-5834, December 2025.
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 ...

Steadily translating parabolic dissolution fingers

open access: yes, 2015
Dissolution fingers (or wormholes) are formed during the dissolution of a porous rock as a result of nonlinear feedbacks between the flow, transport and chemical reactions at pore surfaces.

Simulation of Geological Carbon Dioxide Storage

open access: yes, 2008
We modifed a streamlined-based simulator based on the work of Batycky et al. (1997) [7] to solve CO2 transport in aquifers and oil reservoirs. We then use this to propose design strategy for CO2 injection to maximise storage in aquifers and to maximise
