Abstract:Due to the depletion of conventional energy reserves, there has been a global shift towards non-conventional energy sources. Shale oil and gas have emerged as key alternatives. These resources have dense and heterogeneous reservoirs, which require hydraulic fracturing to extract. This process depends on identifying optimal fracturing layers, also known as 'sweet spots' . However, there is currently no uniform standard for locating these sweet spots. This paper presents a new model for evaluating fracturability… Show more
