... interactions between fracturing fluid and rock matrix have not received much attention. Clay swelling is one of the well-known undesirable interactions of this kind. If clay swelling occurs on the surface of hydraulic fractures, it can cause a major damage to the conductivity of the fractures. Thus, a detailed...

... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing operations require large amount of water which, in some cases, could reach six million gallons per treatment. Fresh water, from surface and subsurface sources, is usually used to formulate the fracturing fluid. The use of produced water in hydraulic fracturing has...

... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is a vital technique to unlock tight gas condensate reservoirs. The efficiency of clean-up in tight gas condensate reservoirs has a tremendous effect on well delivery. During hydraulic fracturing flowback operations, only part of fracturing fluids flows back...

... Abstract The key in unlocking unconventional reserves is to create massive fracture surface area. During the fracturing treatment, a huge volume of fracturing fluid is pumped to generate fractures and then followed with a large amount of proppant to provide enough conductivity for reservoir...

... for stress and pressure changes during initial production. Refracturing the existing perforation is likely to create a wider but shorter fracture compared to the virgin case because the fracturing fluid in these fractures encounter less resistance for enlarging fracture width rather than fracture length...

... Abstract Friction reducers (FRs) represent an essential component in any slickwater fracturing fluid. While the majority of the previous research focused on evaluating the friction-reduction performance of these chemicals, only a few studies addressed the potential damage these chemical can...

... Abstract Surfactants are one of the essential additives included in hydraulic fracturing fluids to decrease interfacial tension to improve flow back to the surface for better well productivity. The surfactant can be adsorbed on the formation surface, changing reservoir wettability, which can...
