... development. The results of the study show the importance of fracture fluid selection as well as both effective fracture half-length and fracture conductivity in maximizing the economic returns in this area of the Montney. hydraulic fracturing water saturation linear flow fracture treatment Upstream...

... matrix permeability or low initial gas rates aggravate the liquid loading problem inside the fracture and thereby impact the gas productivity during initial production. hydraulic fracturing shale gas complex reservoir drawdown water recovery Fluid Dynamics water saturation fracture face...

... of the wellbore location relative to the propagated fracture. If the wellbore is high in the fracture, gravity segregation will cause liquid removal from the lower portion of the fracture to be very difficult. In low conductivity proppant beds, capillary pressure will tend to retain high water saturations, thus...

... improvement. In this work, we solve for the gas relative permeability improvement of the invaded zone of a fractured well accounting for both evaporation and capillary suction. The conservation equations, for both water and gas, are solved numerically to obtain water saturations and gas relative permeability...

... volume (including rock) which is water. By comparing the bulk volume water in a given formation versus water production from various fields, a prediction of water cut can be made for a given field ( Davis and Wood, 2004 ). Based on the formation's log-derived average porosity and initial water saturation...
