Behavior of a hydraulic fracture in permeable formations
The permeability and coupled behavior of pore pressure and deformations play an important role in hydraulic fracturing (HF) modeling. In this work, a poroelastic displacement discontinuity method is used to study the permeability effect on the HF development in various formation permeabilities. The numerical method is verified by the existing analytical and experimental data. Then the propagati...
متن کاملGravity driven hydraulic fracture with finite breadth
This study outlines a new method for disposing of hazardous (e.g., nuclear) waste. The technique is called Abyssal Sequestration, and it involves placing the waste at extreme depths in Earth’s crust where it could achieve the geologically long period of isolation. Abyssal Sequestration involves storing the waste in hydraulic fractures driven by gravity, a process we term as gravity fracturing. ...
متن کاملSlug Testing in Multiple Coal Seams Intersected by a Single, Vertical Fracture
stimulated wells completed in commingled reservoirs, i.e., This paper examines tic transient pressure response from slug reservoirs in which the layers communicate only at the wellbore tests in wells completed in multiple, hy&aulically fractured coal and not in the fractures or reservoir. Under these conditions, our seams. We developed a model for stimulated wells producing model is applicablee...
متن کاملComparison of Different Hydraulic Fracture Growth Models Based on a Carbonate Reservoir in Iran
There has been little interest in the application of hydraulic fracture treatment in Iranian oil fields, thanks to the primarily suitable production rates of the vast oil fields. In this paper, hydraulic fracturing treatment was simulated by different models for a carbonate reservoir in the southwest of Iran. Suitable pay zones were nominated based on the lithology, water-oil saturation, geomec...
متن کاملAn approximate solution for a penny-shaped hydraulic fracture that accounts for fracture toughness, fluid viscosity and leak-off
This paper develops a closed-form approximate solution for a penny-shaped hydraulic fracture whose behaviour is determined by an interplay of three competing physical processes that are associated with fluid viscosity, fracture toughness and fluid leak-off. The primary assumption that permits one to construct the solution is that the fracture behaviour is mainly determined by the three-process ...
