Overview

This study demonstrates how adjusting perforation density and cluster spacing enhances fracture geometry and production performance in tight oil reservoirs.

Key Points

  • Reducing cluster spacing to 6 clusters/stage improves stress interference and fracture networks.
  • Enhanced perforation density raises stimulated reservoir volume by 15-20% compared to standard methods.
  • Numerical simulations reveal that optimized perforation density allows for better fracture propagation.
  • This methodology supports improved oil production by balancing complexity and conductivity in tight formations.
