Hydraulic Fracturing Process: Roles of In Situ Stress and Rock Strength
This paper presents results of a comprehensive study involving analytical and field experimental investigations into the factors controlling the hydraulic fracturing process. Analytical theories for fracture initiation of vertical and horizontal borehole are reviewed. The initiation and propagation process of hydraulic fracturing is performed in the field by means of hydraulic fracturing and stepwise hydraulic fracturing, the effect of factors such as in-situ stress and rock strength on fracture propagation process is studied and discussed. The fracture initiation pressures estimated from the analytical model and field experiments are compared as well as the fracturing process during case 1and case 2. Results from the analytical model and field experiments conducted in this study are interpreted with a particular effort to enlighten the factors controlling the hydraulic fracturing process.
