A New Method and Application of Full 3D Numerical Simulation for Hydraulic Fracturing Horizontal Fracture

The numerical simulation of hydraulic fracturing fracture propagation is the core content of hydraulic fracturing design and construction. Its simulation results directly affect the effect of fracturing, and can effectively guide the fracturing construction plan and reduce the construction risk. At...
