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

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.

Best,
Alf

Emne: [Opm] Hydraulic Fracture Modelling

Hello all,

I wonder if there are any plans to include the modelling of hydraulic fractures 
in Flow. 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.

PC
