Numerical analysis of the hydraulic fracture propagation behavior encountering gravel in conglomerate reservoirs by Zehao Xu, Haiyang Zhao, Xiangjun Liu, Xiongwei Liu, Pandeng Luo, Lixi Liang

“…A high in-situ stress difference (over 8 MPa) weakens gravel-caused stress shielding, leading to stable fracture propagation with a single morphology and increased extension distance, though not favoring complex network formation. As the incidence angle rises, the gravel’s impact on stress and seepage fields weakens, but the risk of shear failure on the cementation interface increases. …”
