Optimal Design and Application of Multi-stage Fracturing Parameters for Horizontal Wells in Oil Reservoirs

With the increasing demand for oil and gas, the importance of multi-stage fracturing technology in improving the productivity of hydrocarbon wells is increasingly prominent. This paper focuses on the optimization design of multi-stage fracturing parameters, aiming at improving oil recovery and controlling development cost through refined design. In order to achieve this goal, we combine theoretical analysis, numerical simulation and experimental verification. Initially, through theoretical analysis, the primary factors influencing the fracturing effect are pinpointed. Additionally, numerical simulation technology is employed to meticulously simulate the fracturing process, optimizing the number of fracturing sections, location choices, and construction parameters. Ultimately, a sequence of experiments verifies the optimized design outcomes. The findings reveal that the refined multi-stage fracturing parameter design notably boosts hydrocarbon well productivity and aids in cost reduction. This study offers not just practical optimization methods for fracturing parameters in oil and gas field development, but also valuable direction for the industry’s technological advancement. My aspiration is for this research to enhance the overall profitability in the oil and gas sector.
