    • The proppant placement and fracture geometric parameters evaluation in hydraulic fractures are essential to optimize the stimulation strategy in unconventional oil and gas production. A new method adopting Gd as a tracer to detect hydraulic fracture near wellbore is proposed in this paper. Based on the numerical simulation and thermal neutron diffusion theory, the induced fracture width evaluation parameter WTN is defined. Then, the effect of lithology, porosity, borehole diameter, salinity and oil saturation to determination of fracture width is analyzed. The results indicate that WTN exponentially increases before leveling off with the increases of induced fracture width. The larger the porosity, and the smaller the formation water salinity, the smaller the WTN is. The dimension of hole and oil saturation have little effect on WTN. Monte Carlo method is employed to build formation model before and after hydrulic fracturing and thermal neutron distribution in strata of different depths is simulated. Also, the response curves of thermal neutron count NEAR, FAR and WTN are obtained. It is found that the fracture parameter results are consistent with the setting model, showing that the thermal neutron detection method based on Gd tracing can be used to evaluate the fracture of near wellbore.
