Abstract

The utilization of advanced methods of borehole image Previous HitanalysisNext Hit; such as determining Previous HitfractureNext Hit trace length and Previous HitfractureNext Hit porosity, can allow for an enhanced understanding of the Previous HitfractureNext Hit network. Such an understanding is especially valuable in the characterization of unconventional reservoirs, in which natural fracturing can play a significant role in providing hydrocarbon storage and in influencing hydraulic Previous HitfractureNext Hit stimulation. Ultimately, it is considered that borehole image based Previous HitfractureNext Hit characterization could be used as an input to more accurately constrain DFN (Discrete Previous HitFractureNext Hit Network) modeling and to therefore drive more representative stimulation modeling. This presentation provides examples of advanced methods of borehole image based Previous HitfractureNext Hit Previous HitanalysisTop and briefly discusses how this data might be applied to constrain more representative DFN models.
