OnPlan Comparison Study 1 Weng
From wiki.pengtools.com
Brief
The case study is based on Weng [1] paper published in 1992.
Paper Summary
Pseudo 3D (P3D) hydraulic fracturing models often overpredict fracture height for a poorly contained fracture. This is caused partly by either the neglect of the fluid flow component in the vertical direction or a crude treatment of the 2D fluid flow in the fracture as 1D flow in the vertical direction in the fracture-height calculation. This paper presents a height-growth model that adopts a flow field more representative of the actual 2D flow in a fracture.— Xiaowei Weng[1]
