..., as well as the impact of different choke sizes on gas production after flowback. The findings showed that as proppant particle diameter increased, choke size also increased. However, if the choke size is too large or too small during the flowback process, it will reduce fracture conductivity. The optimal...

We measure the change in fracture aperture using micro-CT scanning, observe the evolution of the fracture surface using laser profilometry, measure the fracture conductivity change during the core flooding, and determine the temporal evolution of the major cations in the effluent...

... Abstract A key feature of unconventional shale reservoirs is low permeability. On average, only 10% of original oil in place and 25% of original gas in place is produced from these reservoirs. Understanding the mechanisms behind fracture conductivity past the first couple of years of shale...

... Abstract An appropriate pressure-drawdown management has been proved to be effective in balancing production performance and economic feasibility. Many pilot research focused on the flowback or early production data during transient linear flow and evaluated the fracture conductivity...

... intersecting primary fractures. The SRV productivity is determined by fracture conductivities, fracture dimensions and network complexity, which is also time-dependent. The objective of this work is to present a comprehensive method for time-dependent fracture design that produces optimal solution according...
