The Main Controlling Factors and Evaluation Method of the Reservoir Stimulation Potential: A Case Study of the Changning Shale Gas Field, Southern Sichuan Basin, SW China
Based on logging, seismic, fracturing and production data from 301 productive wells in Longmaxi Formation in Changning shale gas field of southern Sichuan basin, the various influence factors of shale gas stimulated potential have been analyzed to carry out the correlation study with estimated ultim...
