... Abstract Knowledge of in-situ stress orientation and magnitude is important for calibration of geomechanical models in low permeability reservoirs and bounding formations. The analysis of azimuthal anisotropy from cross-dipole acoustic data and study of drilling induced wellbore failures from...

... such as spacing, orientation, and length are acquired and compared with regional or macroscopic elements. The main workflow of fracture network modeling consists of four main steps: fracture identification and density calculation, fracture driver characterization, discrete fracture network modeling and fracture...

... network; small and large fractures coexisting network. The number of the turning point in the Lorentz derivative curve can infer the number of large fractures. The number of microseismic events and orientation controls the number of fractures and connectivity. The estimated fracture volume controls total...

... fracture stimulation of the reservoir is used to validate the fracture models. Our stress sensitivity analysis indicates that reactivation potential of natural fractures varies considerably, mainly depending on natural fracture size and orientation, rock mechanical properties and anisotropy of horizontal...
