... Abstract Shale well performance depends mainly on stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) which is generated from the hydraulic fracture job. The hydraulic fracture requires a mixture of fluid and proppant per feet to increase well recovery factor. Production rate of shale wells is related...

... of characterizing the hydraulic fractures generated with different stimulation designs and understanding their relationship with the vertical (different landing) and horizontal (same landing) spacing. Also, we present cases showing examples where child-child interferences are integrated with other field data...

... Abstract The Longmaxi shale gas play in Sichuan, China is unique due to multiple tectonic deformations in the geological history, which makes the shale play highly heterogenous and hydraulic fracturing execution problematic. The hydraulic fracturing design has matured after ten years’ evolution...

... Abstract The hydraulic fracturing technique is based on pumping a given fluid at a high pressure greater than the rupture pressure of the reservoir rock, which causes the creation of high permeability channels inside the rock. This process also makes the fluid contained in the formation flow...

... by the barite weighting agent, which can be used for barite removal before hydraulic fracturing to avoid abnormal pumping pressure and proppant screen-out. The use of this agent in well BZ-D significantly mitigates the pumping pressure during re-fracturing, and a production increase of 131% was obtained...

... If a simulation cell contains several matrix blocks with different sizes, it is difficult to perform an accurate flow simulation with an equivalent block size. In particular, the fractures near faults or hydraulically fractured wells are not uniformly distributed, and they cannot be homogenized...

... Abstract Unconventional reservoirs have been defined as formations that cannot be produced at economic flow rates or that do not produce economic volumes of oil and gas without horizontal well with hydraulic fracture treatments. Horizontal well fracturing efficiency in unconventional reservoirs...
