Abstract
Summary Geomechanical characterization of shale gas reservoirs is a key factor for understanding the mechanical behavior of the shale strata and to help predict reactions to hydraulic fracturing stimulation (HF) at a large scale. Small-scale geomechanical data provide the first-order information for establishing a large-scale robust geomechanical model which can guide stress-strain analysis of fracturing processes. Because of issues such as stress-shadowing (changes in fracture orientation in later stages because of induced stress change), stress-strain analysis can improve interpretation of microseismic information and lead to more reliable HF design. We summarize briefly some of the major components of a scientific geomechanical characterization approach including the determination of various mechanical properties of the reservoir rock, the estimation of in-situ stresses, the evaluation of the role of natural fractures and discontinuities, the investigation of the shear dilation mechanism, and so on. Also, the roles of these properties in affecting HF processes and the related mechanisms are discussed and placed in a Geological Sciences context.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
