Abstract
Systems and methods include a method for determining a breakdown pressure for the wellbore. Input parameters are received for computing a breakdown pressure for a wellbore. A pore pressure is determined using a Stehfest method equation using a function of a time duration, a distance from the wellbore, an injection fluid compressibility, a Biot poroelastic parameter, and a modified Bessel function. A poroelastic stress is determined using a poroelastic stress equation based on the pore pressure determined for the wellbore, a Composite Simpson's Rule for numerical integration, an empirical parameter, a pore pressure, a Biot poroelastic parameter, tensile strength of rock, and a Poisson distribution. A breakdown pressure is determined using a tested time-based formula, poroelastic stress, a minimum and a maximum horizontal stress, using a formula tested against multiple wells and a distance from the wellbore in a radial direction.
