The shale gas reservoir has the characteristics of complex experienced structure movement, deep burial, large horizontal stress difference, low permeability, low porosity, low brittleness index and the like, so that the shale gas reservoir has no natural capacity, although the single well yield is high, the initial degression is fast, the later yield is low, the production period is long, an ideal seam network is difficult to form after volume fracturing, and the reservoir transformation effect is poor. Meanwhile, a large amount of water resources are consumed by the conventional volume of fracturing fluid, and shale gas reservoirs are mostly distributed in water-deficient areas, so that the implementation of conventional hydraulic fracturing is further restricted to a certain extent. Due to resource and environmental concerns, some countries have legislation that prohibits exploitation of shale gas by hydraulic fracturing.
