Abstract
The provided method allows optimizing the fracturing design (frac design) while taking into account the two-dimensional modelling of the transport processes in the fracture. The generation of the fracturing design in a well comprises the steps of: obtaining data on hydraulic fracturing including the proppant pumping schedule and the fibre pumping schedule for various types of fibres; generating a degradation matrix for the various types of fibres; generating possible options of the hydraulic fracturing operation according to the fibre type and pumping schedule. Moreover, the method of hydraulic fracturing, which comprises generating a schedule of fracturing in a well, preparing a fracturing fluid containing carrier fluid, proppant, additives, and fibres, and pumping the fracturing fluid into the formation through the well following the selected (optimal) option of the fracturing operation, is provided.
