Performance-based fractal fracture model for complex fracture network simulation

Abstract The paper presents a novel hydraulic fracturing model for the characterization and simulation of the complex fracture network in shale gas reservoirs. We go beyond the existing method that uses planar or orthogonal conjugate fractures for representing the “complexity” of the network. Bifurc...
