The impact of cement sheath mechanical properties on near wellbore hydraulic fracture initiation

Hydraulic fracturing is a stimulation technique which is used, in particular in unconventional reservoirs such as shale gas and tight sandstones, in order to en-hance production of hydrocarbon. Hydraulic fracturing is usually operated through the perforations in cased-hole wellbores. The perforation...
