A Method for Calculating KGD Fracturing Model through Excel Tables

Xiong Chukang

Abstract: When the geological conditions of the reservoir are relatively simple, two - dimensional models (PKN, KGD) can be used to calculate the length of fractures generated by hydraulic fracturing technology. This article mainly introduces the method of using Excel tables to calculate the KGD fracturing model. The independent variables of Excel spreadsheet functions have high adjustability, and the assumption of independent variables is not interrupted. Therefore, the calculation formula of the crack model can be repeated, and the results can be easily and accurately calculated.
