Zusammenfassung:A method of increasing a stimulated reservoir volume in a hydrocarbon-bearing formation in fluid communication with a wellbore, the method including drilling a plurality of lateral extensions at varying depths in the formation extending from a vertical wellbore using underbalanced coiled tubing drilling; and injecting an exothermic reaction component into the plurality of lateral extensions to create a plurality of fractures extending outwardly from and between the plurality of lateral extensions to create a multilateral fracture network.
