EFFECT OF STIMULATION ON THE PERFORMANCE OF DEVONIAN SHALE GAS WELLS. Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This paper presents the results of a study of the effect of various stimulation methods on Devonian Shale reservoirs and compares the economics of the stimulation alternatives. Formation permeability anisotropy and induced fracture wing length are the key factors which determine the optimal stimulation technique. Induced fracture conductivity and orientation are also important.
