The influence of heterogeneity of lacustrine shale facies on rock mechanical properties and brittleness: a case study of Jurassic lacustrine shale reservoirs in Northeast Sichuan B... by Haibo Zhao, Haibo Zhao, Shujun Yin, Shujun Yin, Xuefeng Yang, Xuefeng Yang, Weilin Yan, Weilin Yan, Guangwu Bi, Guangwu Bi, Jianliang Zhang, Jianliang Zhang, Zimeng Xing

“…Through a correlation analysis of normalized rock parameters and the brittleness index derived from stress-strain curves with the fracture breakdown pressure and extension pressure observed in field fracturing, a comprehensive evaluation index has been established using the analytic hierarchy process to reflect the brittleness of deep lacustrine shale.DiscussionThis index serves effectively in characterizing the brittleness features of deep lacustrine shale, and evaluations suggest that the Liang upper section has a relatively high brittleness index and good compressibility, marking it as a key target layer for future shale gas development.…”
