Effects of Pore Fluid Chemistry and Saturation Degree on the Fracability of Australian Warwick Siltstone

Fracability of unconventional gas reservoirs is an important parameter that governs the effectiveness of subsequent gas extraction. Since reservoirs are saturated with various pore fluids, it is essential to evaluate the alteration of fracability of varyingly saturated rocks. In this study, varyingl...
