The Effect of Proppant Size and Concentration on Hydraulic Fracture Conductivity in Shale Reservoirs

Hydraulic fracture conductivity in ultra-low permeability shale reservoirs is directly related to well productivity. The main goal of hydraulic fracturing in shale formations is to create a network of conductive pathways in the rock which increase the surface area of the formation that is connected...
