... Abstract Bullhead refracturing and mechanical diversion via liners are two common methods of horizontal refracturing. Bullhead refracturing attempts to treat the entire lateral in a single stage, while installing a liner allows for multi-stage completions in the existing lateral. Bullhead...

... a mathematical solution that accounts for poroelastic stress shadow effects and lateral geomechanical heterogeneity, which leads to non-uniformity in hydraulic fracture height and length distribution along the horizontal well. Additionally, a separate solution is proposed for calculating the hydraulic fracture...

... separate landing zones was selected for the study. A well drilled in the middle of the pad was chosen to test four different completion designs along the lateral, alternating from a base design to tighter cluster spacing (high intensity), slower proppant concentration ramp (slow sand ramp) and increased...

... so that preventive actions can be taken to minimize the downtime. This work first leveraged transient simulations (OLGA) to probe the mechanism of shut-in induced liquid loading in unconventional wells with long laterals. Based on the acquired insights, various machine learning models, including...

... the petrophysical, lithological and mechanical properties along the lateral wellbore and to map the near wellbore fractures and formation structure. Rock properties were validated by comparing with acquired pilot hole logs which showed that the rock properties were consistent throughout the entire lateral. However...

... Abstract A two-mile lateral infill well was drilled roughly 2000 ft from an offset producer in the same formation. The offset producer was a one-mile lateral and ran parallel to the heel portion of the child. The objective was to maximize productivity and completion efficiency by completing...

... Abstract As part of the Marcellus Shale Energy and Environmental Laboratory (MSEEL), vertical cores encompassing the entire Middle Devonian Marcellus Shale integrated with image and geomechanical logs along the lateral wellbore underscored the distribution and morphological evolution...

... Abstract Refracs have historically been difficult to design, complex to execute, and results largely unpredictable. Under normal circumstances initial completion designs have many unknown variables, including reservoir quality along the multistage lateral, as well as the far field reservoir...

... being sampled at a lateral offset of ~ 75 ft from said producer. We see a broad correlation between hydraulic fracture clusters in the core and significant propped zones. Using DAS interpretation, we see a good match between proppant placed at perforation clusters and far-field observations at the core...

... Abstract This paper is a follow-on to work by Barrie and Patience (2022) on a correlation study between a cored pilot well and produced oils from laterals in the Lower Spraberry (LS) and the Wolfcamp A (WCA) Formations in Martin County, Midland Basin (referred to as well #1 here...

The interference testing provided critical insights into the relationship between fracture treatment design, well performance, and drainage area. The project consisted of a six-well pad (10,000 ft laterals) with a dedicated...

... Abstract Over the past decade, operators have significantly increased unconventional well performance through drilling longer laterals. While longer lateral length is known to benefit production, the exact efficiency of the additional length is a subject of much debate, in part due...

... Abstract The Woodford Shale consists of interbedded biogenic-rich siliceous mudstone and the Caney Shale in this area consists of argillaceous/carbonate-cemented siltstones and organic-rich mudstones. This study compares the analyses on cuttings from two laterals drilled in 2020...
