WORKFLOWS TO ADDRESS LOCALIZED STRESS REGIME HETEROGENEITY TO ENABLE HYDRAULIC FRACTURING

摘要

A method includes identifying one or more stress regime types along at least a portion of a borehole, where the stress regime types are selected from a normal stress regime, a thrust stress regime and a strike-slip stress regime, and selecting reservoir access locations along the borehole based on the type of stress regime identified along the borehole.
