Abstract

A system and method discloses performing a fracture operation at a wellsite about a subterranean formation. The method involves, obtaining wellsite measurements by placing a downhole tool in a wellbore and using the downhole tool to acquire measurements of the subterranean formation, simulating the obtained wellsite measurements to determine formation parameters comprising conductivity tensors based on a formation model of the measured subterranean formation, validating the formation model by comparing the obtained wellsite measurements with the simulated wellsite measurements, generating fracture parameters and triaxiality indicators based on the validated formation model, and fracturing the subterranean formation based on the generated fracture parameters and triaxiality indicators.
