Abstract

A system and a method evaluate the effect of proactive utilization of a spatial stress field in laboratory. The system includes a rock sample placement device for placing a rock sample, a confining pressure control device for applying a set confining pressure to the rock sample, a fracture imaging device, a fracturing fluid injection device for injecting fracturing fluid into the perforation in the wellbore of the rock sample to form fractures within the rock sample, a stress measurement device, and a processing device for calculating a stress field proactive utilization coefficient of the rock sample.
