Optimization of Wellbore Strengthening Treatment in Permeable Formations (SPE-180467-MS)
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) May 23, 2016 In this paper, we have conducted a systematic investigation of the major parameters which affect WBS treatment in permeable formations. Large-scale fracturing experiments were conducted on two rock types with significantly different permeability and stiffness: Berea sandstone (stiff - moderately permeable) and Castlegate sandstone (weak - highly [...]
