Assessment of Saturation Effect on Hydraulic Fracturing in Sandstone and Thermally Treated Granite

In this study, a set of laboratory experiments was carried out to study the parameters of hydraulic fractures induced in the dry and mineral-oil-saturated rocks and compare them with the geomechanical characteristics of tested samples. We chose sandstone and thermally treated granite as the material...
