... Abstract The objective of this paper is to develop predictive models to optimize the (1) characterization of the stimulated reservoir volume (SRV), (2) discretization of the fracture network, and (3) hydraulic fracturing modeling, by combining machine learning (ML) algorithms and reservoir...

... Abstract A hybrid hydraulic fracture (HHF) model composed of (1) complex discrete fracture networks (DFN) and (2) planar fractures is proposed for modeling the stimulated reservoir volume (SRV). Modeling the SRV is complex and requires a synergetic approach between geophysics, petrophysics...

... Abstract Many factors affect water movement within the reservoir; it's already known that petrophysical characteristics of the porous media, reservoir fracture networks and exploitation rhythm are some of them. In naturally fractured reservoirs containing near-critical fluids (oil systems...

The aim of this analysis was to find effective ranges parameters on 3D Fracture Network for the area, integrating the data and information...

... fractures network contribute to hydrocarbon transport, although the main production conduct that contributes substantially to production into the wellbore is the natural fractures network. An increasing effective stress upon formation as a result of reservoir depletion leads to permeability loss...

Simulations demonstrate that shale reservoirs with ultralow permeability require an interconnected fracture network of moderate conductivity (branch fractures) with a relatively small spacing between fractures to obtain reasonable recovery factors. In this paper, two new methods...

From BHI and core analysis, it was found that the formation Vshale and the porosity were the main geological drivers on natural joints (small scale fractures) occurrence. Those properties associated to the matrix...
