Rock mechanical properties of immature, organic-rich source rocks and their relationships to rock composition and lithofacies
Mechanical properties of layered rocks are critical in ensuring wellbore integrity and predicting natural fracture occurrence for successful reservoir development, particularly in unconventional reservoirs for which fractures provide the main pathway for hydrocarbon flow. We examine rock mechanical...
