Hydraulic Fracturing Treatment Optimization for Low Permeability Reservoirs Based on Unified Fracture Design

Hydraulic fracturing optimization is very important for low permeability reservoir stimulation and development. This paper couples the fracturing treatment optimization with fracture geometry optimization in order to maximize the dimensionless productivity index. The optimal fracture dimensions and...
