A DISLOCATION-BASED BOUNDARY ELEMENT METHOD TO MODEL PRESSURIZED FRACTURES
(2019)
A significant portion of hydrocarbon and geothermal resources in the world, and especially in the United States, is unconventional. Some of the unconventional resources have special geological structures so that their ...
AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON CREEP BEHAVIOR OF SHALE ROCKS: WITH EMPHASIS ON THE INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE AND ANISOTROPY
(2017-05-12)
The deformation of materials under constant load over time is called creep. The conductivity of fracture produced by hydraulic fracturing decreased over time as a result of this time dependent phenomenon that requires to ...
Geomechanics of Unconventional Reservoirs: Hydraulic Fracturing and Nanoindentation
(2021-12)
Geomechanics is the study of the mechanical response of geologic formations subjected to injection, production, and storage of fluids in the subsurface. It plays a role in understanding formation integrity and the response ...
STRESS PATH AND PORE PRESSURE IN AND AROUND A PRODUCING FORMATION PIERCED BY A SALT DOME
(2018)
The pore pressure decrease due to production from a reservoir causes changes in the total and effective stresses, leading to compaction and deformation of the reservoir and the surrounding rocks, which can translate into ...
