Conclusions

  • Massive waterfrac-tests created long axial fractures in

granite and in sedimentary rock

  • Fractures were not stopped by natural fractures or

lithology changes

  • Fractures are kept open by self propping
  • Fracture conductivity insufficient in two cases, sufficient

in one case

  • Hydraulic fracturing has to be re-considered as the

dominant stimulation mechanism also in granite
