This project aims to enhance hydraulic fracturing techniques used in energy extraction by developing advanced simulation methods. It focuses on accurately predicting the three-dimensional fracture networks in various rock types, improving the efficiency and effectiveness of energy resource extraction.
The world's ever-growing rate of energy consumption urges the improvement of techniques of both fossil fuels and renewable energy.
Hydraulic fracturing is a technique applied to both categories of energy sources.
It consists in pumping water at a very high pressure through pre-drilled wells into the ground and generating fractures in the rock.
It can be employed to extract crude oil or natural gas from the rock; it can also facilitate the extraction of heat from the earth by forming a network of…
