Abstract: A method is used to determine the permeability of a hydraulic fracture. The method includes obtaining formation parameters and a plurality of formation samples, dividing the plurality of formation samples into a first group and a second group, measuring mechanical and hydraulic properties of the first group, soaking the second group in a fracturing fluid for a plurality of time periods, and measuring, after each soaking time period, the mechanical and hydraulic properties of the second group. The soaking the second group in the fracturing fluid includes soaking the second group in a plurality of different fracturing fluids. The method further includes building, using a computer processor, a proppant-rock interaction model based, at least in part, on the mechanical and hydraulic properties of the first group and the second group, and determining, using the computer processor, the permeability of a hydraulic fracture based, at least in part, on the proppant-rock interaction model and the formation parameters.

Abstract: A method for predicting well production is disclosed. The method includes obtaining a training data set for a machine learning (ML) model that generates predicted well production data based on observed data of interest, generating multiple sets of initial guesses of model parameters of the ML model, using an ML algorithm applied to the training data set to generate multiple individually trained ML models based the multiple sets of initial model parameters, comparing a validation data set and respective predicted well production data of the individually trained ML models to generate a ranking, selecting top-ranked individually trained ML models based on the ranking, using the data of interest as input to the top-ranked individually trained ML models to generate a set of individual predicted well production data, and generating a final predicted well production data based on the set of individual predicted well production data.

Abstract: Described is a method for managing an expectation on sanding volume in weak sandstone. In situ data related to a region of sandstone proximate a well is acquired. Measured property data corresponding to samples from the region of sandstone are obtained, and a chemical consolidation treatment is performed on the samples. Chemical consolidation treatment data is then obtained. The measured property data and the chemical consolidation treatment data is supplied as inputs to a simulator. The simulator performs simulations with and without chemical consolidation treatment. Based on the simulations, a correlation between a well flow rate and an effect of the chemical consolidation treatment is determined.
