Formation Damage Induced by Oil-Based Drilling Fluid in a Longmaxi Shale Gas Reservoir: A Comprehensive View of the Drilling, Stimulation, and Production Processes
Abstract:Formation damage during drilling, completion, and stimulation stages is an important reason inducing the obviously different initial production rates and rapid declines in shale gas wells. How the formation damage at all of the exploration and development stages is reduced is a major engineering problem to be solved urgently in shale gas reservoirs. Oil-based drilling fluid (OBDF) is the first choice for drilling horizontal long sections for its good inhibition and lubrication. However, formation damage induce… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
