英文摘要 | A fully coupled extended finite element (XFEM) model is presented to investigate the effect of different well types (highly deviated and horizontal wells) on simultaneous growth of multiple fractures. The importance of the use of deviated wells is briefly described and the governing equations for multi-cluster hydraulic fracturing in a saturated porous media are stated. The weak forms of both stress equilibrium and fluid mass continuity equations are turned into a system of linear equations through XFEM-type enrichments in space and Newmark scheme in time, which are solved by Newton-Raphson iteration method. In addition, the secant method is employed to impose the pressure continuity and mass conservation conditions at the fracture-well intersections. A numerical example with considering the simultaneous propagation of four hydraulic fractures is first adopted to validate the proposed numerical model. Several examples are then employed to investigate the influence of operational parameter, deviation angle, fracture spacing, placement and number on final fracture patterns. Numerical results show that coefficient of variation in multiple fracture heights for high-angle well is lower than that for horizontal well for all fracture placements. The opposite growth directions for two neighboring fractures, partially arising from the height difference at fracture-well intersection points, can reduce the stress shadow effect, thus promoting uniform growth of multiple fractures. Those results potentially unveil the causes for higher oil and gas production rates measured after multi-cluster hydraulic fracturing along highly deviated wells. |
