Comparison of Different Hydraulic Fracturing Scenarios in Horizontal Wells Using XFEM Based on the Cohesive Zone Method
Multistage hydraulic fracturing is a highly effective method for creating multiple transverse fractures to improve gas and oil reservoir production. It is critical to minimize the fracture spacing while also ensuring transverse propagation of fractures in multi-fractured horizontal wells. In this pa...
