...Numerical methods Abstract In this paper, a fracture mechanics model that deals with fracture growth in layered low-permeability rocks is presented and applied to hydraulic fracturing stimulation of coal seam gas reservoirs. The model uses the conventional pseudo-3D treatment by which...

... in Fig. 1(a) . The next section discusses in detail the main geomechanical parameters that are required to model fracture growth and their relationships with the geomechanical model in Fig.1 . Various case studies will be briefly introduced and their production performances will be discussed...

... that there are two kinds of fracture shape which are different from Barnett shale. This paper will test the effect of fracturing liquid and proppant on the fracture growth; The values of triaxial stresswere obtained in the neighboring layers and WDFD formation; Finally, the pilot wellisan example to illuminate...

... of this fracture and the long-term injectivity are mainly influenced by formation properties, solids loading in water, in-situ stresses and well trajectory. Fracture growth and injectivity during produced water reinjection are influenced by long-term leak-off processes, thermo-poroelastic changes within...

... Abstract Recent advances in hydraulic fracture mapping technologies have provided a wealth of information on fracture propagation in numerous geologic settings. Prior to such detailed measurements of actual fracture growth, fracture propagation was either assumed to be simple (single planar...

... limitation of tiltmeter mapping is the distance from the tiltmeter to the fracture. What Models are Supposed To Do Current Model Use and Practice Currently, fracture models are used to design and therefore simulate hydraulic fracture growth processes. About a handful of commercial fracture-growth...
