Experimental modeling of sanding fracturing and conductivity of propped fractures in conglomerate: A case study of tight conglomerate of Mahu sag in Junggar Basin, NW China

True tri-axial sanding fracturing experiments are carried out on conglomerate samples from the Permian Wuerhe Formation of Mahu sag, Junggar Basin, to study hydraulic fracture propagation geometry and quartz sand transport in matrix-supported fine conglomerate and grain-supported medium conglomerate...
