... and preflush liquid CO 2 volume influence fracture network morphology and complexity, they have a lesser effect on the stimulated volume compared to slickwater volume. Proppant quantity primarily affects fracture conductivity with minimal impact on stimulated volume. This research underpins the optimization...

... production dataset is initially generated numerically for a defined set of the fracture half-length, fracture height, fracture width, fracture conductivity, and the number of fractures’ values. Secondly, the generated dataset is trained through a neural network to predict the effects of preceding parameters...

...Dali Guo; Yunxiang Zhao; Zixi Guo; Xianhui Cui; Bo Huang Proppant is an important material for hydraulic fracturing that impacts the production and production cost of oil and gas wells. The key properties of proppant are crushing rate and fracture conductivity. The most common way to evaluate...

... distance and fracture conductivity are still unclear for the field practice, even though the technique has improved significantly over the last several years. In this work, an analytical method is proposed to address it. First, the analytical production rate for a single fracture is proposed, and then, we...

... fracture conductivity. It was shown that a bigger fracture asymmetry factor and low fracture conductivity would prolong the time of wellbore storage effects. Therefore, to reduce wellbore storage effects, it was essential to keep higher fracture conductivity and fracture symmetry during the hydraulic...
