Paper Number: ARMA-2023-0519
... a horizontal well is used to perform a hydrogen storage cycle, a lower recovery factor can be obtained than a vertical well system. Meanwhile, a horizontal well system reduces hydrogen injection capacity. Alhotan et al. (2023) conduct a sensitive study on permeability heterogeneity. Iglauer (2022) optimum...

... that has calcite shrubs and spherulites as the main textural components. The average porosity (13.3 %), obtained in gas permeameter-porosimeter was similar to the one obtained from thin sections, well logs, nuclear magnetic resonance, and digital rock analyses. The carbonates’ heterogeneity was manifested...

... possible if the fracture becomes contained at depth. In the absence of any heterogeneity, assuming a Newtonian fluid, an impermeable medium subjected to linear background stress, and a block injection, Möri and Lecampion (2023) have shown that the containment depends on a single, dimensionless buoyancy...

.... In these basins the in-situ minimum stress is usually directed horizontally causing the hydraulic fracture to propagate on vertical plane and to interact with layer-like heterogeneities. To varying degrees, these heterogeneities comprise differences in the in-situ minimum stress, fracture energy, elastic...

Axial and radial deformation within each section of intact rock in the specimens were recorded with separate strain gages, and strain gages in these same positions were also attached to intact specimens for comparison. Notable radial strain heterogeneity was observed in the jointed specimens...
