Hydraulic fracture propagation direction during volume fracturing in unconventional reservoirs
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive numerical model is developed to study the fracture propagation direction during volume fracturing of unconventional reservoirs, based on elastic and fracturing mechanics of a rock, as well as the maximum circumferential stress criterion and boundary element method.

Stimulated reservoir volume estimation for shale gas fracturing: Mechanism and modeling approach
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a mathematical model to estimate the stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) through simulating the main process during shale fracturing, where multiple simultaneous hydraulic fractures propagate, perturbing the formation stress and raising the reservoir pressure; meanwhile, the stress change and pressure rise may jointly make natural fractures occur failure, and the SRV is estimated based on the volume of the naturally fractured zone that experiences tensile or shear failure.

Development of a new correlation to determine the static Young’s modulus
TL;DR: In this paper, an accurate and robust correlation for static Young's modulus to be estimated directly from log data without the need for core measurements was developed, which was tested for different cases with different lithology such as calcite, dolomite and sandstone.

Interpretation of Hydraulic Fracturing Pressure in Tight Gas Formations
Gun Ho Kim,John Yilin Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an accurate calculation of bottomhole treating pressure was achieved by incorporating hydrostatic pressure, fluid friction pressure, fracture fluid property changes along the wellbore, friction due to proppant, perforation friction, tortuosity, casing roughness, rock toughness, and thermal and pore pressure effects on in-situ stress.

Optimizing horizontal completions in the Barnett shale with microseismic fracture mapping
TL;DR: In this article, the first 23 horizontal wells in a core area of the Fort Worth basin with vertical wells in the same area were compared with the standard procedures used in vertical Barnett wells.
