Integrated Geomechanical Characterization of Anisotropic Gas Shales: Field Appraisal, Laboratory Testing, Viscoelastic Modelling,and Hydraulic Fracture Simulation

This research provides a multiscale geomechanical characterization workflow for ultra-tight and anisotropic Goldwyer gas shales by integrating field appraisal, laboratory deformation and ultrasonic testing, viscoelastic modelling, and hydraulic fracture simulation. The outcome of this work addresses...
