Regional evaluation method of ground stress in shale oil reservoirs-taking the Triassic Yanchang formation in northern Shaanxi area as an example

Abstract Estimating in-situ stress in shale oil reservoirs is critical for predicting hydraulic fracture height. However, the varied longitudinal lithology and transverse isotropy challenge the regional evaluation of ground stress. A new method based on the Kaiser effect method and the Sn Model was...
