... ABSTRACT: Understanding natural fracture systems is essential in prospecting reservoir opportunities. In this sense, it is necessary to integrate the available information that allows generating a suitable conceptual model of the fracture network. Accurate characterization of natural fractures...

.... Furthermore, the presence of natural fractures increases the complexity of the system to characterized and simulated. Modelling the process of induced fracture initiation, propagation and interaction with natural fractures and the effect of the temperature in the system is a very challenged task. Significant...

... during fracturing. The pressure drop curve is mostly a unimodal curve; 2. Fracture morphology is related to lithology and in-situ stress distribution. Natural fractures and veins have a certain induction effect on the direction of fracture propagation. The smaller the in-situ stress difference, the more...

... experiment. Aiming at this, we conducted true triaxial fracturing experiments on the tight shale with thin interbedded bedding (from Jimsar formations) by using liquid CO 2 . In the experiments, the effect of natural fracture, pump rate, and horizontal principle stress difference on fracture morphology...

..., spacing, pattern, mineralization of the natural fractures (NF), and their relative orientation with respect to the wellbore and present-day principal stresses (Blanton, 1982; Warpinski and Teufel, 1987; Gale, et al., 2014; Raterman, et al., 2018; Daneshy, 2019). Natural fractures (NFs) in the rock...
