Analysis of Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Using a Mixed Mode and a Uniaxial Strain Model considering Geomechanical Properties in a Naturally Fractured Shale Reservoir

This study proposes a hydraulic fracture propagation model with a mixed mode comprising opening and sliding modes to describe a complex fracture network in a naturally fractured shale gas formation. We combine the fracture propagation model with the mixed mode and the uniaxial strain model with tect...
