摘要: This invention relates to a procedure control fracture orientation in underground formations increase well productivity. The method is performed by hydraulically fracturing the formation and propping plugging fractures which result. then perforated or notched direction angularly disposed relative anticipated first hydraulic fracture. presence of will force second propagate away from that A for simultaneously two directions also provided.
