Numerical simulation of multi-stage fracturing and optimization of perforation in a horizontal well

Aiming at analyzing the issues of non-uniform growths of multiple hydraulic fractures caused by stress shadowing, a numerical model considering elasto-hydrodynamic, stress interference and flow distribution into different fractures was presented. Based on the model, the effects of perforation fricti...
