... depletion. It is also found that the “V-shape” caused by the NF effect in the pressure derivative curve becomes deeper when there are more NFs, longer NFs, and higher fracture conductivity. Furthermore, the “V-shape” appears earlier, and the duration of the NF effect is longer as the number of NFs increases...

To accurately predict the performance of acid fracturing in naturally fractured carbonate reservoirs, the acid etching of natural fractures should...

... measurements show that, as expected, the hardness of the shale was reduced by acidizing. This means that for acidizing to work effectively, it is important not to etch the fracture surfaces uniformly. Doing so will result in a reduction in the fracture conductivity under stress. The microstructure changes...
