Integrated optimum design of hydraulic fracturing for tight hydrocarbon-bearing reservoirs

Abstract: Although hydraulic fracturing is not a new technology, it has not yet been implemented in the United Arab Emirates. Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), the regional producer in United Arab Emirates, has set out to initiate the utilization of this treatment during year 2019. In this work, a systematic design procedure for hydraulic fracturing in tight petroleum-bearing reservoirs is proposed. The design caters for surface and subsurface flow parameters, and it is hoped to provide basic guidelines for ADNOC … Show more

“…Hydrofrac is also vital for improving water injection rates in sandstone and carbonate reservoirs [5,6]. Thus, hydrofrac treatments are typically designed to achieve appropriate fracture length, width, and permeability, in commensurate with the formation properties [7]. In general, long and narrow fractures are desired, particularly for tight gas reservoirs [8].…”
