Numerical Simulation of Hydraulic Fracture Propagation in Conglomerate Reservoirs: A Case Study of Mahu Oilfield

Mahu conglomerate oilfield has strong heterogeneity. Currently, large-scale hydraulic fracturing is commonly used for reservoir reconstruction. The geometry of hydraulic fractures is influenced by gravel. By referring to the scanning and logging results of a conglomerate reservoir, and considering t...
