The objective of this study is to develop physical models to quantitatively simulate the
pressure response of well interference through fracture hits with complex geometries. Our …

ABSTRACT A recently developed unconventional fracture model (UFM*) is able to simulate
complex fracture networks propagation in a formation with pre-existing natural fractures …

This study aims to study the driving mechanism of proppant transport from wellbore to
hydraulic fracture networks (HFN) by fracturing fluid, using computational fluid dynamics …

Hydraulic fractures and natural fractures constitute the gas flow channels of fractured
horizontal wells in shale gas reservoirs. Their shape and structural characteristics determine …

Complex fracture network will be formed by horizontal wells large-scale volume fracturing.
Local Simulated Reservoirs Volume (LSRV) region will form since uneven permeability …

Production from shale gas reservoirs depends greatly on the efficiency of hydraulic
fracturing treatments. The cumulated experience in the industry has led to several best …

Horizontal well volume fracturing plays an important role on enhancing gas recovery.
Microseismic map indicates that the secondary fracture has been observed obviously and …

Hydraulic fracture monitoring is very useful to understand real-time fracture movement to
ensure unwanted events. Active seismic monitoring of hydraulic fracture propagation was …

Production estimation for hydraulic fractures with heterogeneous proppant placement is not
straightforward and requires numerical solution. Contrasts in hydraulic conductivity are …
