Analysis of Water Flowback and Gas Production Data for Fracture Characterization in the Horn River Basin
DownloadSpring 2019
Shale gas is one of the most promising energy resources due to its wide distribution, abundant reserves, and low pollutant emissions to the environment. Although shale gas plays usually have very low permeability and porosity, the use of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing technologies...
