Abstract

In the context of enhancing production from tight low-permeability reservoirs, techniques such as horizontal well section fracturing, volume fracturing, and repeat fracturing have been widely applied. The pre-fracturing reservoir selection for hydraulic fracturing plays a crucial role in determining the success of the fracturing operation. Its objective is to evaluate the production potential of candidate reservoirs and select the most suitable ones for fracturing, in order to maximize the post-fracturing economic benefits. Considerable progress has been made by domestic and international researchers in the field of pre-fracturing reservoir selection, employing primarily two categories of analysis methods: conventional analysis and modern mathematical theory analysis. This paper provides a comprehensive review of relevant research literature, aiming to offer guidance for practical hydraulic fracturing operations.
