Abstract: Hydraulic fracturing is a well completion technique for Oil and Gas production enhancement in both conventional and unconventional reservoirs. However, it can result in the unfavorable consequence of the premature screen-out, which occurs due to the proppant bridging across the perforations or similar restricted flow areas.
