Numerical Investigation on Mesoscale Evolution of Hydraulic Fractures in Hydrate-Bearing Sediments

Numerical Investigation on Mesoscale Evolution of Hydraulic Fractures in Hydrate-Bearing Sediments

Hydraulic fracturing is widely recognized as a potential stimulation technology for the development of challenging natural gas hydrate. However, the fracturing behavior of non-diagenetic hydrate reservoirs has peculiar characteristics that are different from those of conventional oil and gas reservo...
