Hydraulic fracturing has been widely used to enhance reservoir permeability during the
extraction of shale gas. As one of the external input parameters, injection rate has a …

A series of hydraulic fracturing experiments were conducted using Lushan shale cores (50
mm in diameter and 100 mm in length) to unravel the formation mechanism of fracture …

Abstract The first Geo-Energy Frontier Forum with the theme of" opportunities and
challenges for geo-energy exploration and development" was successfully held in Wuhan …

Deep shale gas reservoirs, compared to shallow and intermediate shale gas reservoirs,
usually exhibit lower fracture complexity, smaller stimulated volume, poorer conductivity, and …

The shale-sandstone interbedded reservoirs are widely distributed in China and the natural
gas reserves are huge, and the particularity of this type of reservoir has brought great …

Compared with shallow reservoirs of shale gas, the high stress and plasticity of shale
reservoirs under deep conditions significantly impact the propagation of hydraulic fractures …

Hydraulic fracturing is commonly used to enhance the hydraulic conductivity of geothermal,
oil, and gas reservoirs, particularly those situated in enclosed and unconventional …

Abstract 3D printing (3DP) technology is a groundbreaking technology that can offer
valuable insight into rock characterization and theoretical model verification due to its …

Large-scale and complex cracks have always been the eternal goal of hydraulic fracturing
(HF) technology in shale reservoirs, but there has been the public concern that the HF could …

Ultrasound has a very broad application prospect in monitoring the wetting range of coal
seam water injection. In order to explore the evolution of P-wave velocity with parameters …
