Impact of elliptical boreholes on in situ stress estimation from leak-off test data

Abstract We developed an inversion technique to determine in situ stresses for elliptical boreholes of arbitrary trajectory. In this approach, borehole geometry, drilling-induced fracture information, and other available leak-off test data were used to construct a mathematical model, which was in tu...
