Criterion for Hydraulic Fracture Propagation Behavior at the Interface of a Coal Measure Composite Reservoir by Yifeng Guo, Runxu Zhang, Xinghua Zhang, Kangkang Han, Fazhi Yan, Cunbao Deng, Zhixin Jin

“…Regarding the three expansion modes of hydraulic fractures at the interface of a coal measure composite reservoir (arrested, deflection, and penetration), based on the coupling theory of fluid flow and solid elastic deformation, a criterion that considers the influences of the injection parameters (fracturing fluid injection rate and viscosity) is established to predict the propagation path of hydraulic fractures at the interface of a composite reservoir. …”
