Numerical Analysis on the Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Networks

Numerical Analysis on the Optimization of Hydraulic Fracture Networks

The clear understanding of hydraulic fracture network complexity and the optimization of fracture network configuration are important to the hydraulic fracturing treatment of shale gas reservoirs. For the prediction of hydraulic fracture network configuration, one of the problems is the accurate rep...
