Fracture Initiation of an Inhomogeneous Shale Rock under a Pressurized Supercritical CO2 Jet
Due to the advantages of good fracture performance and the application of carbon capture and storage (CCS), supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) is considered a promising alternative for hydraulic fracturing. However, the fracture initiation mechanism and its propagation under pressurized SC-CO2 je...
