... page of shale gas exploration and development in China. The reason of the success may be owed to the adaptable strategy and corresponding parameters so as to maximize Effective Stimulated Reservoir Volume(ESRV) ( Jiang, et al., 2011 ; Jia, et al.,2012 ). A systematic method was employed in this study...

... Abstract With the recent development on several shale gas plays in the Sichuan Basin, shale gas has emerged as one of the viable and economical energy options in China. The drilling and completion practices are mostly echoed the success of shale gas developments in US, and hydraulic fracturing...

... Abstract Shell and PetroChina are partnering in a pioneering Joint Cooperation Project in the Sichuan Basin targeting the Lower Silurian Longmaxi shale gas play. Since 2010, over 20 wells, including both verticals and horizontals, have been drilled and completed with various hydraulic...

... Abstract Generating sufficiently complex fracture network is a prerequisite for horizontal shale gas wells to obtain industrial gas flow. Microseismic monitoring can visually represent the stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) and its dynamic process, which plays an important role in the adjustment...

... Abstract Unconventional gas reservoirs (shale gas, tight gas and coal bed methane) constitute a large percentage of natural gas supply. Hydraulic fracturing is commonly used to break-up rock matrix and connect natural fractures and cleats to create gas flow pathways. Application of hydraulic...

... Abstract Stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) has become the key means to the development of shale gas, and the natural fractures influence the complex of fracture network of SRV, significantly. However, currently, the researches on natural fractures are still focus on the geological description...

... Abstract China is the first country achieving shale gas breakthrough outside the North America. Fuling shale gas play is one of the most successful shale gas reservoirs by far in China. However, production loggings of shale gas wells illustrate that only about one third to one half of hydraulic...

... Abstract The staged fracturing and microseismic monitoring techniques are used for horizontal well stimulation in the Fuling shale gas field. From the analysis of the microseismic data, most of the wells are well stimulated. However, there are still some zones which are not broken thoroughly...
