Study on the optimal design of volume fracturing for shale gas based on evaluating the fracturing effect—A case study on the Zhao Tong shale gas demonstration zone in Sichuan, China

Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is the key technology in the development of shale gas reservoirs, and it mainly adopts volume fracturing technology to communicate hydraulic fractures with natural fractures to increase the drainage area. In view of the difficulty in characterizing the complex fractures...
