... of orientations, local intensity, and sizes consistent with what has been observed from both image log data from a vertical pilot well, Well 58-32, and measurements from outcrops in the nearby mountains. Previous to this work, fracture sizes were estimated from the Salt Cove outcrop trace data shown in Fig. 1...

... by remote sensing techniques, the authors believe the proposed method would provide a better and more objective quantification of GSI variability. hydraulic fracturing fracture size machine learning Upstream Oil & Gas geological strength index plane blockiness intensity Artificial...

... in the subsurface and challenging to obtain from outcrops. To guide DFN construction, outcrop studies must extract meaningful length data and geomechanical models need to model the range of fracture sizes in 3D, simulate interfaces, and account for cement. hydraulic fracturing DFN model outcrop...

... to estimate fracture failure plane size when the additional constraint of mechanical layering is applied. 2. METHODLOGY Different models for seismic slip and characteristic rigidity values were applied to the microseismic data to generate fracture size realizations reflective of the rock lithology and failure...
