An Investigation of Hydraulic Fracturing Initiation and Near-Wellbore Propagation from Perforated Boreholes in Tight Formations
In this study, hydraulic fracturing tests were conducted on 10 and 15 cm synthetically manufactured cubic tight mortar samples. The use of cube samples allowed application of three independent stresses to mimic real far field stress conditions. A true triaxial stress cell was used for this purpose....
