Home Full-text access for editors Numerical investigation of single and multiple fractures propagation in naturally fractured reservoirs by Han Li; Yushi Zou; Shuai Liu; Peter P. Valko International Journal of Oil, Gas and Coal Technology (IJOGCT), Vol. 24, No. 2, 2020 Abstract: The properties of natural fractures (NFs), including fracture size, aperture width, and mechanical properties, etc., cannot be neglected when developing a model of hydraulic fracturing.
In hydraulic fracturing of shale formations, compared to conventional reservoirs, the fracturing fluid injected is of low‐viscosity and hence during pumping the proppant settles significantly, forming a proppant bank. Motivated by this consideration, we initially develop a high‐fidelity process model of hydraulic fracturing to describe the dominant proppant settling behavior during hydraulic fracturing process.
