Sustaining Fracture Area and Conductivity of Gas Shale Reservoirs for Enhancing Long-Term Production and Recovery (08122-48)

Texas A&M University (TEES) - Principal Investigator:  Dr. Ghassemi Ahmad

Objective:  The objective of the project is to define types of fracture networks more prone of loosing fracture area, and to define critical parameters (including proppant concentration, fluid interaction, relative shear displacement, and others) for each reservoir type, to maintain adequate fracture conductivity.
 
Period of Performance:  September 14, 2009 to September 14, 2012
