... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is the most prominent technique for increasing well productivity in shale oil and gas reservoirs. Spacing between perforation clusters, with Plug-and-Perf (PnP) fracturing method also believed to be spacing of fractures, is one of the parameters that need...

... Abstract The United States hydraulic fracturing and completion activities have seen a paradigm shift in the pumped water and proppant volumes along the increasing completed lateral over time. Hydraulic fracturing has become the most dominant treatment in North America to tap the unconventional...

... fracturing, hydraulic fracture volume and the water flowback after the well is open to production. Achieving consistency becomes even more challenging given the interdependence of multiple sources of uncertainty. We propose a workflow that uses multiple sources of observed operational data, such as volume...

... analysis show that with the increase of fracture networks scale, the holistic production rate will increase, and the influence of hydraulic fractures (HFs) are much greater than that of interconnected micro fractures (IMFs). It is also noted that the early period of the production behavior is mainly...

... to build a geomechanical and petrophysical model for the pad. The model was used for hydraulic fracture modeling and production history match of the parent well, after which the reservoir pressure depletion profile was used in a geomechanics simulator for an updated in situ stress state at 7 years...

... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing is applied ubiquitously in unconventional hydrocarbon reservoir development to increase the well productivity. To design a frac job, an injection falloff diagnostic test, such as minifrac test, is conducted first to determine key formation properties and frac...

... Abstract Reservoir pressure and stress behaviors are simulated during elapsed time between sequential fractures in multistage and multipad hydraulic fracturing scenarios to analyze interference between fractures and to manage potential fracture given interactions. Commonly current implemented...

... Abstract Diagnostic tools such as microseismic, microdeformation, and fiber optics have been successfully used in unconventional basins for many years to identify characteristics of hydraulic fractures ( Warpinski et al. 2014 ). More recently there has been a push for integrating multiple...

... Abstract Hydraulic fracturing pumping data is recorded in the field at one-second intervals. Engineers spend hours identifying events such as Instantaneous Shut-in Pressure (ISIP) in the time-series data that is generated. The ISIP flag is placed at the end of the stage pumping time...

... fluids up to 80%. Recently, high-viscosity friction reducers (HVFRs) have gaining popularity as drilling and hydraulic fracturing fluids because the HVFRs exhibit numerous advantages such as the following ( Ba Geri et al., 2019a & b ): Reduced pipe friction during fracturing treatments...

... Abstract A major outstanding challenge in developing unconventional wells is determining the optimal cluster spacing. The spacing between perforation clusters influences hydraulic fracture geometry, drainage volume, production rates, and the estimated ultimate recovery (EUR) of a well...

In this work the authors have tried to deconstruct the varied chemical groups used in a hydraulic fracturing job, to analyze its impact independently. In order...

... Abstract The ensemble methods show the ability to obtain the geometry of natural fractures in high-permeability reservoirs. However, hydraulic fractures in unconventional reservoirs are different and the ability of these methods to invert production data to determine hydraulic fracture geometry...
