A Review on Effective Hydraulic Fracturing Design: Route to the Enhanced Recovery from Unconventional Reservoirs

  • Unique Paper ID: 148862
  • Volume: 6
  • Issue: 7
  • PageNo: 125-130
  • Abstract:
  • Hydraulic fracturing is such kind of key technique that has the potentiality to extract the natural gas or oil from the unconventional reservoirs more effectively than other stimulation techniques. Moreover, hydraulic fracturing is also used for stimulating various reservoirs that was in uneconomic production previously. In addition, hydraulic fracturing is considered as a safe method for stimulating the wells as it has a lot of flexibilities in its execution. Successful hydraulic fracturing job will not be achieved until the proper design on hydraulic fracturing parameters is done. Actually this study enables to give the proper idea about the preparation of effective design parameters as well as the elementary design approaches for the hydraulic fracturing treatment. The best results from the hydraulic fracturing stimulation technique will be achieved when all the important parameters for fracturing design will be properly coordinated.
