Characterization methods for natural fractures distribution in shale and tight reservoirs

Aperture distribution and spatial arrangement are fundamental characteristics of natural fractures. Since it is impossible to directly measure the aperture of all existing fractures, a power law (fractal model) has been commonly used to describe fracture apertures, which has also been extended to es...
