Lab-Scale Stimulation Results on Surrogate Fused Silica Samples

Description

Lab-scale stimulation work on non-porous fused silica (similar mechanical properties to igneous rock) was performed using pure water, pure CO2 and water/CO2 mixtures to compare back to back fracturing performance of these fluids with PNNL's StimuFrac.
