摘要
The present disclosure envisages a shock/blast wave assisted fracking method which includes explosive heating of a fracking fluid. The method includes heating the brine solution using either an electrical heater or laser beams or microwave generators. Brine solution is filled up in a chamber comprising a plurality of pilot cracks. The brine fluid can be heated using a plurality of electrical coils or a laser beam generator or a microwave generator. The boiling of the brine solution results in formation of high pressure steam, which is subsequently directed through a plurality of valves, towards the cracks inside the oil well. The rapid flow/release of the steam through the valves results in creation of shock waves/blast waves. The shock waves are exerted upon the existing cracks thereby inducing crack propagation.
