Paper presented at the SPE Annual Technical Conference and Exhibition, September 23–25, 2024
Paper Number: SPE-221032-MS
...Mathematical Model We develop a semi-analytical, multiphase RTA model for FR3, as FR3 predominates throughout most of the flowback period and behaves similarly to FR2, except for the additional oil BDF flow regime. The analytical solutions are derived for the linear flow in HF and matrix...

... the conditions of target gas saturated zones in the Ivishak sandstone reservoir. Gas blocking capacity for different foam placement and flowback strategies in reservoir cores were evaluated to identify important factors for optimized field process design. Based on lab results, five producing wells were selected...

... of major incidents that can take weeks to recover from. We have been involved since 2004 in developing planning solutions to manage better the flowback and clean-up operations. One must start with the understanding of the relevant physics that drives the clean-up processes. The forward modeling basis...

Paper Number: SPE-206246-MS
... Abstract In an oil field, openhole multilateral maximum reservoir contact (MRC) wells are drilled. These wells are typically equipped with smart well completion technologies consisting of inflow control valves and permanent downhole monitoring systems. Conventional flowback techniques consisted...

Paper Number: SPE-201479-MS
... Abstract This paper presents a method for identifying the optimum soaking time between the cessation of pumping, and the flowback of hydraulic fracturing fluids after a hydraulic fracture stimulation job, to increase productivity of shale gas and oil wells. Multiple cracks were observed...

... separator is typically installed upstream of the choke manifold. The solids accumulated in the sand separator are usually flashed directly to a sand pit or a flowback tank by surging the well and bypassing the rest of the flowback equipment. This practice adds to operational simplicity and efficiency...

... such example is the operational difficulty and costs incurred in dealing with proppant flowback after fracturing operations are completed. In many such cases, a post-fracture cleanout is required before turning the well over to production, and subsequent additional cleanouts can be required after three to six...

During these operations, the hydraulic fracture system experiences major changes in pressure and flowrate, which may affect the well's long-term productivity. Among the many mechanisms responsible for decrease in well productivity, we highlight 1) the risk...
