Prediction of hydraulic fracturing fracture parameters based on the study of reservoir rock geomechanics

Abstract

The article is devoted to the search for ways to reduce the risks of water inflow during hydraulic fracturing and its more reliable design in order to increase technological efficiency. The methodology and approach to forecasting the parameters of hydraulic fracturing fractures based on the study of geomechanics of reservoir rocks are presented. Analytical, laboratory and field studies were carried out. The design adjustment was tested when planning hydraulic fracturing, the possibility of using such an algorithm of actions and its success were shown. Recommendations are given on the correct design of hydraulic fracturing and improving the quality of work, which reduces the risk of flooding of the productive reservoir. Keywords: hydraulic fracturing; geomechanical properties of the formation; increase in production; reduction of waterflooding.
