A study of the effect of stress and fluid sensitivity on propped fracture conductivity in preserved reservoir shales
A sizable amount of literature exists analyzing the effect of confining stress on fracture conductivity in sandstones. This thesis attempts to answer similar questions with regard to shale formations. The low Young’s Moduli and Brinell hardness values characteristic of many prospective shale forma...
