The impact of rock composition on geomechanical properties in a shale formation: Middle and Upper Devonian Horn River Group shale, Northeast British Columbia, Canada

The geomechanical properties of a shale reservoir are essential both to the development of natural fractures and to the formation’s response to hydraulic fracture stimulation. We evaluate the rock mechanical properties in the Middle and Upper Devonian Horn River Group shale, including the Evie and Otter Park Members and the Muskwa Formation, applying core hardness measurements and log-derived Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and brittleness and relate these to shale composition and texture.
