HOW TO EVALUATE A SHALE PLAY? Part B Emanuel Martin In the first part of “HOW TO EVALUATE A SHALE PLAY?" we've developed: Shale play features, Main properties
Shale Basic Knowledge
How to evaluate a shale play? Part A Emanuel Martin Introduction Shale formations constitute 60% of the rocks that make up the Earth's crust being only a small group
Flow Mechanics
Several analytical simulations under the conditions of constant wellbore flowing pressure were performed to quantitatively assess the impact of stress sensitivity on single well performance.
Hydrulic Fracture
We study the impact on fracture propagation (in both magnitude and direction) due to anisotropies induced by various parameters, namely ultimate tensile strength, Young’s modulus,
An embedded fracture modeling framework for simulation of hydraulic fracturing and shear stimulation
As fluid is exchanged between the two domains, conservation of mass is guaranteed through a coupling term that appears as a simple source term in
