Experimental investigation of proppant transport and behavior in horizontal wellbores using low viscosity fluids
… fluid at a high flow rate and then introducing proppant with the fluid to keep the fractures open after the pumping is stopped. One of the most significant concerns in this process is the proppant transport and distribution between multiple perforation clusters. Uneven proppant distribution …

Coupled 3-d numerical simulation of proppant transport and fluid flow in hydraulic fracturing
… of slurry injection, fluid flow, fluid leak-off, proppant transport, proppant settling and interaction between fluid and proppant particles. In this study, the focus is on fluid and proppant motion within hydraulic fractures. The effectiveness of hydraulic fracturing treatment is highly dependent …

Modeling of Solid Particle Transport in Fractures and Its Applications to Proppant Placement During Hydraulic Fracturing Operations
… including NP transport, dispersion, and distribution in hydrocarbon reservoirs, proppant placement within hydraulic fractures, and sand production is critical to the efficient and effective hydrocarbon exploitation. Considering the petrophysical complexity as well as the intricate …

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Nanotechnology on Foam Stability for Hydraulic Fracturing Application
… or other hard solid particles, referred to as proppant, is added in later stages of pumping. The fracturing fluid is required to have sufficient viscosity to suspend and carry the proppant deep into the created fracture system to keep the fractures open after hydraulic fracturing operation and …
