Rock fracture kinetics of the facture mesh system in shale gas reservoirs

The formation mechanism of fracture mesh and the mechanism of activating natural closed fractures during shale fracturing are studied based on rock fracture kinetics. It is found that steering conditions should be satisfied at both left and right ends of a natural fracture to form intensive fracture...
