Evaluation method of rock brittleness based on statistical constitutive relations for rock damage

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an evaluation method of brittleness index based on energy method, established the evaluation model based on three types of damage constitutive relations, and finally analyzed the effects of the damage variable of peak strain of different types of different rocks on brittiness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Waterless fluids in hydraulic fracturing – A review

TL;DR: In this paper, the development of two major waterless fracturing fluids, foams and liquid N2/CO2, including the advantages and challenges faced with waterless hydraulic fracturing, fracturing mechanisms, and fluid properties such as stability and rheology, are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Study on the mechanism of rupture and propagation of T-type fractures in coal fracturing

TL;DR: In this article, the authors established a new theoretical model for T-type fractures in hydraulic fracturing, the results of which serve as a complement and improvement for the extant mechanism study on coal hydraulic fracturing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rheology and stability of nanoparticle-stabilized CO2 foam under reservoir conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of different parameters on foam apparent viscosity and foam stability were experimentally investigated including the effect of nanoparticle concentration, salinity, foam quality, shear rate and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

The calculation method based on the equivalent continuum for the fracture initiation pressure of fracturing of coalbed methane well

TL;DR: In this article, a new calculation model for the fracture initiation pressure of coalbed methane fracturing is proposed, which takes coal rock mechanical properties into consideration. But the model is not suitable for coal cleats.
