Abstract:Hydraulic fracturing, especially pulse hydraulic fracturing, is an important method for extracting oil and gas from low-permeability reservoirs, improving recovery rates significantly. Pulse hydraulic fracturing, which involves varying injection rates to create pressure waves, outperforms traditional constant-flow fracturing methods significantly. However, during pulse hydraulic fracturing operations, the flow properties of the fluid in the column change from moment to moment. Furthermore, current research on … Show more
