Hydraulic by Antar Achour is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document presents a new chart for predicting hydraulic fracture height using fluid-solid coupling equations and rock fracture mechanics, addressing limitations of the traditional Gulrajani–Nolte chart. The new chart demonstrates that hydraulic fracture propagation is finite even at high net pressures, and it includes optimized parameters for field applications. Validation through acoustic wave logging indicates that the predicted fracture heights have an average error of 14.3% compared to actual measur
