Effect of pore pressure distribution on fracture behavior of sandstone in nitrogen fracturing

To investigate the effect of pore pressure distribution on fracture behavior of rock in gas fracturing, nitrogen fracturing experiments on the sandstone are performed under different gas filtration conditions. Results indicate that the breakdown pressure of the sandstone reduces with the decreasing...
