A new multi-pore fractal model to delineate the effect of various factors on imbibition in shales

Large-scale hydraulic fracturing of horizontal wells is a key technology for shale gas extraction, during which tens of thousands of cubic meters of water could be injected into the formations for hydraulic fracturing. Water is imbibed into the shale pores under the action of capillary force and osm...
