Abstract:
The mechanical characteristics of shale soaked by fracturing fluid for different immersion times were characterized using triaxial compression tests carried out at the confining pressure of 50 MPa. An evaluation index of brittleness was established based on the brittleness-drop coefficient, the stress decrease coefficient and softening modulus. The weakening mechanism was discussed and the following conclusions were obtained: The deterioration degrees of peak strength, elastic modulus, softening modulus and residual strength are as high as 47.68%, 25.70%, 96.69% and 32.20%, respectively; Both the mean of peak strength and elastic modulus have a significant exponential function with immersion time; Hydration swelling of shale is time-consuming and tends to be stable after 72 hours; The failure mode is shear failure on the whole, accompanied by varying degrees of bedding plane cracking; With the increase of immersion time, the number of shear failure surfaces changes from 1 to 2, and finally more than 3, no cracks form along the direction perpendicular to the bedding plane even when the shale is soaked for a long time; The evaluation index of brittleness has some obvious advantages and practical applications, have a significant exponential function with immersion time; The weakening mechanism of mechanical characteristics is mainly related to the stress state changing at crack tips caused by hydration swelling, the dissolution caused by the alkaline fracturing fluid and the formation of liquid film on the surface of shale particles, which is the result of mechanical-physical-chemical multi-field coupling.

Environmental and Engineering Geoscience
Characterizing the Influence of stress-dependent elastic moduli and rock strength on stresses around boreholes and Rate of Penetration through a collaboration and estimation of the variations in Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio, and the initial yield strength of the reservoir rock (point of transition from elastic to plastic deformation). Stress applied can be estimate from  torque on bit, weight on bit, and frequency data to improve. This study is to well bore stability.

        As a graduate student at the Colorado School of Mines, Abdulhadi and myself worked together as team mates on a number of research projects. Besides being very dedicated and a fantastic contributor, Abdulhadi showed a lot of leadership and initiative that reflected well in our submissions and final grades. Working with Abdulhadi remains one of my memorable highlights at CSM and I would strongly recommend him as a valuable and technical resource.
