How do I calculate the base conductivity?

Use the `calculate_fracture_conductivity` tool by providing the proppant concentration, initial proppant permeability, and the physical fracture width.

Can I account for proppant crushing?

Yes, the `estimate_stress_degradation` tool allows you to adjust permeability based on effective stress and a specific material's crush coefficient.

Fcd is the dimensionless conductivity, a ratio used to determine if a fracture is effectively conductive relative to the reservoir's permeability and half-length. You can calculate this using `calculate_dimensionless_conductivity`.

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for hydraulic fracturing analysis. It allows AI agents to determine base fracture conductivity using proppant concentration, permeability, and width. Users can evaluate fracture effectiveness by calculating the dimensionless conductivity (Fcd) and estimate how reservoir stress affects proppant permeability via estimate_stress_degradation. Finally, it predicts the expected increase in well productivity based on conductivity targets. It is designed to bridge the gap between reservoir engineering data and AI-driven decision making.
