Publication number: 20230204816Abstract: A computer-implemented geological modeling method is disclosed. Hydraulic fracturing includes pumping fluids through a wellbore/casing and into a formation through perforations, creating fractures that can improve well productivity. Geological modeling may be used to model pumping of fluids into the subsurface to achieve a desired fracturing result. However, the grid used may affect the fracture propagation calculations used for geological modeling. Thus, a methodology is disclosed which reduces the grid dependence when determining various aspects of fracturing, such as pressure and/or aperture. The methodology uses a first correction factor that is based on the grid used to determine fracture propagation and a second correction factor that is not based on the grid used to determine fracture propagation (such as based on an ideal grid). In this way, the two correction factors are derived from different aspects, which when combined, may be used to reduce grid dependence when determining fracture propagation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2021Publication date: June 29, 2023Inventors: Vadim DYADECHKO, Dakshina M.

Patent number: 11675941Abstract: A method for modeling fluid flow in a wellbore is provided. Hydraulic fracturing is an effective technique to improve well productivity by forming high permeable pathways for hydrocarbons to flow from the rock formation to the wellbore. Fluid flow for hydraulic fracturing is modeled using separated flow components, including a wellbore component (modeling the wellbore(s)), a perforation component (modeling the perforations(s)), a fracture component (modeling the fracture(s)) and a rock component (modeling the rock). Each respective component may be selected independently from a plurality of available components. Further, the respective components may be coupled to one another only at their interfaces, such as at a wellbore-perforation interface, a perforation-fracture interface, and a fracture-rock interface, for continuity of fluid kinematics and properties (such as pressure and density).Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2020Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: ExxonMobil Technology and Engineering CompanyInventors: Dakshina M.
