Journal ArticleDOI
Natural fractures in the Barnett Shale and their importance for hydraulic fracture treatments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized natural fractures in four Barnett Shale cores in terms of orientation, size, and sealing properties, and they measured a mechanical rock property, the subcritical crack index, which governs fracture pattern development.
Journal ArticleDOI
The interaction of propagating opening mode fractures with preexisting discontinuities in shale
TL;DR: In this article, Semicircular bend tests on Marcellus Shale core samples containing calcite-filled natural fractures (veins) were performed to investigate the influence of weak planes on hydraulic fracture propagation.
