Experimental hydraulic fracturing of Berea sandstone under triaxial stress state
In this work, a newly designed experimental setup is used to perform in-lab fracking under controlled triaxial loading on cylindrical cores of Berea sandstone. Fracking tests are conducted at 10 MPa confining pressure, with vertical compressive loading, as well as two horizontal stresses that simula...
