A review of the shale wellbore stability mechanism based on mechanical–chemical coupling theories
Wellbore instability in hard brittle shale is a critical topic related to the effective exploitation of shale gas resources. This review first introduces the physical–chemical coupling theories applied in shale wellbore stability research, including total water absorption method, equivalent pore pre...
