Fracture Pressure Testing

Fracture Pressure Testing is a geomechanical assessment procedure within pressure testing that determines the maximum pressure at which a subsurface rock formation will fracture, thereby distinguishing it from other pressure tests by its focus on inducing and measuring formation breakdown.
