Patricia - I don't believe any special calculations should be required to model hydraulic fractures. I would recommend, depending on grid size vs stimulation, using a negative skin in COMPDAT, or perm multipliers in the grid.
Good luck! - NR ________________________________ From: Opm <opm-boun...@opm-project.org> on behalf of Alf Birger Rustad <a...@equinor.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 7, 2020 12:27 AM To: Patricia Carreras <patricia_carre...@hotmail.com>; opm@opm-project.org <opm@opm-project.org> Subject: Re: [Opm] Hydraulic Fracture Modelling Hi Patricia, I am a bit unsure how you envision the fractured well modelled in Flow. Resinsight already has support for it using well completions: https://resinsight.org/wells-and-completions/ There is to my knowledge no funding available to work on this in Flow at the moment, so the usual "patches are welcome" applies 🙂 Please also note that you will find software in the OPM IFEM repositories to model the fracture propagation in the reservoir.

This is a key issue given the current important production from unconventionals in the US and other places of the world. Obviously, ResInsight will need to be updated accordingly. Thank you for the hard work. Best regards.
