Spontaneous imbibition in igneous rocks: effect of KCl concentration, confining pressure, and imbibition direction
Abstract Understanding spontaneous imbibition helps to determine the fracturing fluid volume and optimize the flowback design. At present, many studies have mainly focused on shale, but few on igneous rocks. As such, in this study, imbibition experiments were conducted on igneous rocks. The effects...
