... LF-DAS data measured during multifracture propagation. The LF-DAS strain data is linked to the fracture widths through a forward model developed based on the Displacement Discontinuity Method (DDM). In this study, we firstly investigated the impacts of fracture height on the inversion results through...

... of opposing forces. The workflow adopted for this study included developing a preliminary model that solves a system of non-linear equations iteratively to arrive at fracture height versus net pressure mapping. The theoretical results were then compared to those available in the literature. The solution set...

These figures also include the gas rate constraints for reference. The producing fracture height (approximately 750 ft...

... Abstract ISIP Analysis is a novel analytical method that calculates the hydraulic height of induced fractures and the in-situ horizontal stress anisotropy from the evolution of instantaneous shut-in pressures during a multi-stage horizontal completion. The fracture height calculated...

... Abstract Laminated structures in shale formations typically result in anisotropic elastic properties, including Young's modulus and the Poisson ratio, which highly influence hydraulic fracturing treatment execution. The lamina can confine the hydraulic fracture height growth and they sometimes...

Full piston displacement behavior was achieved after 60% of the fracture height, when a high-viscosity fluid displaced a low-viscosity fluid and their viscosity ratio was greater than 5. By reducing the viscosity ratio between...

.... The subject well was completed with 15 stages. The simulation results demonstrate that the ash beds in B3–B5 units restrict part of the created hydraulic fracture height and create conductivity pinch points, thus reducing the effective fracture height connected to the wellbore. This, in turn, affects...
