It is very important to study the pristine stress field in Civil, Mining, Petroleum engineering as well as in Geology, Geophysics, and Seismology. There are various methods of determination of in-situ stress in rock mass. However, hydraulic fracturing techniques is the most convenient method to determine and interpret the test results. Based on an hydraulic fracturing stress measurement campaign at an underground liquefied petroleum gas storage project which locates in ZhuHai, China, this paper briefly describes the various uses of stress measurement, details of hydraulic fracturing test system, test procedure adopted and the concept of hydraulic fracturing in arriving at the in-situ stresses of the rock mass.

To prevent or minimise wellbore instability problems, it is critical to determine the optimum wellbore profile and to design an appropriate mud weight program based on wellbore stability analysis. It is a complex and iterative decisionmaking procedure since various factors, such as in-situ stress regime, material strength and poroelastic properties, strength and poroelastic anisotropies, initial and induced pore pressures, must be considered in the assessment and determination.This paper describes the methodology and procedure for determination of optimum wellbore profile and mud weight program based on rock mechanics consideration. The methodology is presented in the form of guideline charts and the procedure of applying the methodology is described. The application of the methodology and procedure is demonstrated through two field case studies with different in-situ stress regimes in Australia and Indonesia.
