Validation of Cubic Law to Estimate Acid Fracture Conductivity

Hydraulic fracturing is one of the most efficient ways to stimulate a formation, and fracture conductivity is an important parameter for designing a fracture job. One of the basic laws to calculate fracture conductivity is Cubic Law. In this research the conductivity of Ilam Formation was measured by conductivity test. The effect of fracture width on the fracture conductivity of samples was investigated. The results were compared with the predicted conductivity by the Cubic Law model. The results showed that the model overestimates the fracture conductivity measured in Lab.
