In order to ensure the most complete recovery of hydrocarbons and to minimize costs in the
production process, it is necessary to control the development of an oil field, even during …

Even though hydraulic fracturing is a common and well adopted well stimulation method in
petroleum industry, there are still open scientific questions in the area, mainly due to …

The hydro-swelling of smectite clay minerals in low-permeability reservoirs further
decreases the reservoir permeability and results in low oil recovery. Currently, the traditional …

Hydraulic fracturing technology is an effective measure that can improve oil and gas
production and achieve enormous economic benefits owing to it phenomenally increasing …

We developed a high-resolution fracture productivity calculator to enable fast and accurate
evaluation of hydraulic fractures modeled using a fine-scale 2D simulation of material …

Hydraulic fracturing operations typically aim to create a highly conductive fracture that will
intensify well production or injectivity. At the end of pum**, a fluid without proppant, called …

In view of the lack of rate decline prediction model of acid‐fracturing vertical wells (AFVWs)
in pore‐cavity‐fracture carbonate reservoirs, a prediction model of AFVWs with …

Unconventional oil and gas resources, such as shale oil and gas, are gradually attracting
great attention from all of the world. Horizontal drilling and large-scale hydraulic fracturing …
