The hydraulic fracturing process begins with the minifrac operation by pumping the same fluid used in the main treatment at fracture flow rate to contact most of the rock to be stimulated and get the following vital information for the success main treatment, such as fluid efficiency, fracture geometry and rock mechanical properties. Subsequently, the main treatment is carried out, which begins with the injection of the pad (which is generally a high-viscosity crosslinked gel that induces fractures, producing the fracture geometry and causes the necessary width through which the fracture slurry, composed of the proppant carried in the crosslinked, gel will enter); then the fracture slurry is pumped and finally it culminates with the displacement of the slurry to the depth of the top of the formation. The objective of the research thesis is to optimize the production of hydrocarbons through the hydraulic fracturing service in low permeability sandstone reservoirs with naturally fractures by tectonic events. In this type of formation, during the hydraulic fracturing process, a system of fractures is generated, made up of induced fractures and natural fractures; since the downhole pressure is greater than the opening pressure of the natural fractures, causing the natural fractures to dilate and admit cross-linked gel + 100 mesh proppant. The opening pressure of the natural fractures is obtained from the analysis of the function G, with the proviso that the leakoff mechanism is pressure dependent (PDL). The average width of natural fractures in low permeability sandstone is 1mm and the maximum diameter of the proppant that can be admitted is 0.333mm, therefore, the 100-mesh proppant, which is included in the 70/140 proppant range whose diameter varies from 0.105 mm to 0.210 mm is able to enter and position itself in natural fractures and induced fractures. The main idea of the thesis is to inject together the pad with the 100-mesh proppant and then pump a proppant larger than the 100 mesh into the fracture slurry to keep open the induced fractures in the rock. When the hydraulic fracturing is completed; an adequate propped system of fractures will be obtained; generating adequate dimensionless conductivity, fracture conductivity, and proppant areal distribution. The benefits that are expected to be achieved is to increase the production of hydrocarbons since during the productive life of the reservoir, the natural fractures and fissures will be open due to the presence of a 100-mesh proppant, which is synthesized in a greater volume of contact between the fractures and the reservoir rock. The 100-mesh proppant minimizes the risk of screen-out by reducing the loss of fluid by leakoff and positioning all the proppant within the fracture system.
