Permeability Evolution of Slowly Slipping Faults in Shale Reservoirs
Abstract
Slow slip on preexisting faults during hydraulic fracturing is a process that significantly influences shale gas production in extremely low permeability “shale” (unconventional) reservoirs. We experimentally examined the impacts of mineralogy, surface roughness, and effective stress on permeability evolution of slowly slipping faults in Eagle Ford shale samples. Our results show that fault permeability decreases with slip at higher effective...
