Paper Number: URTEC-4044587-MS
..., materials logistics, and drilling time savings. The SWBM formulation, optimized through digital fluid intelligence and hydraulics modeling, consistently met, or exceeded drilling curve projections even for extended laterals up to 3 miles. Compared to OBM operations, greenhouse gas emissions were 57.8...

...) and document the journey from first discovery to field trials. ADD is a process where un-cemented, open hole laterals are drilled contemporaneously between offset "standard" wells, using the ADD wells to "harvest" productivity from offset well hydraulic fractures. A "standard" well or "frac well" refers...

... is completed in 2 to 3 hours at any stage along a lateral during normal fracturing operations. A typical ADFIT costs only a small fraction of that of a typical DFIT, due to its short duration and association with normal fracturing operations. To confirm if some of the characteristic flow behaviors observed...

... and injection periods. Common wisdom suggests bullhead acid injection is presumed to enter the heel-most clusters, leaving the toe untreated. Although the entire lateral was not logged, the interval of the heel logged provides answers on whether injected fluid treats the heel only or the entire lateral...

... 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...

... 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...

Paper Number: URTEC-3855094-MS
... 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...

Rock properties were validated by comparing with acquired pilot hole logs which showed that the rock properties were consistent throughout the entire lateral. However...

Paper Number: URTEC-3717749-MS
.... This project included the evaluation of three different fracture treatment designs. 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...
