Abstract

Positioning of a fracture within a given permeability range, under the assumption that a prospective borehole is intersected by one fracture, was modeled by Braester and Barak as a two-person zero-sum game. This paper presents two extensions of the mentioned model, one referring to the situation when more than one fracture intersects each borehole, and the other one for the case when more than one borehole are drilled simultaneously. The one-fracture game model is proved to represent a strong basis in the formalization of these complex situations.
