Effect of Joint Geometrical Parameters on Hydraulic Fracture Network Propagation in Naturally Jointed Shale Reservoirs

The presence of a significant amount of discontinuous joints results in the inhomogeneous nature of the shale reservoirs. The geometrical parameters of these joints exert effects on the propagation of a hydraulic fracture network in the hydraulic fracturing process. Therefore, mechanisms of fluid in...
