A fracture propagation model of radial well fracturing is established based on the finite
element-meshless method. The model considers the coupling effect of fracturing fluid flow …

Stratigraphic sequences are sometimes thin, rarely ideally horizontal and juxtaposed due to
faulting. Wellbore trajectories targeting such strata may not be necessarily horizontal …

Given the abundant reserves, shale oil resource has great potential for future utilization.
However, shale formation is often characterized by complex geological structures and …

Radial borehole fracturing that combines radial boreholes with hydraulic fracturing is
anticipated to improve the output of tight oil and gas reservoirs. This paper aims to …

Radial well fracturing is a promising stimulation method, which shows great potential in
addressing the issues suffered in enhanced geothermal system (EGS), such as poor …
