A computational method of productivity forecast of a multi-angle fractured horizontal well using the discrete fracture model

Multi-staged fracturing for horizontal wells is an important technique of stimulation in a naturally-fractured reservoir (NFR). Due to the complexity of the in-situ stress and the impact of natural fractures, there is usually a certain angle between the hydraulic fractures and the wellbore, which ma...
