Abstract
A formation-tester tool may be positioned downhole in an openhole wellbore. The formation-tester tool may suspend proppant in fracturing fluid located in a chamber of the formation-tester tool. The formation-tester tool may generate a test fracture in an uncased wall of an area of interest of a subterranean formation adjacent to the openhole wellbore and inject the fracturing fluid and the proppant toward the uncased wall and into the test fracture. The formation-tester tool may retrieve a fluid sample from a reservoir within the area of interest of the subterranean formation by creating a drawdown pressure in the test fracture.
