Fracture Initiation and Propagation of Multiple Hydraulic Fractures Across Bedding Planes in Shale Oil Horizontal Well

The Jimsar shale reservoir is characterized by low porosity and low permeability. Multistage fracturing of horizontal wells is an effective development method. However, interference between multiple fractures and the presence of well-developed bedding planes limit the effective extension of fractures. To elucidate the...

Lithology-Dependent Fracture Propagation in Ultra-Large True-Triaxial Hydraulic-Fracturing Experiments

Tight reservoirs commonly exhibit low permeability and pronounced lithological heterogeneity, resulting in complex interactions among far-field stress, local structural weakness, and fluid-driven fracture propagation. In this study, four non-replicated 2 m × 2 m × 1 m physical-model specimens representing tight gluteni...
