.... The comparison shows that improved accuracy in the permeability estimate significantly improves economic performance. The low permeability model has much earlier production interference than the high permeability model because the low permeability model requires greater effective fracture length to match...

... Abstract An oft-occurring outcome of modern fractured horizontal well production systems is considerable interactions between adjacent hydraulic fractures; in the same well (intra-well), or in offset wells (inter-well). An unwanted consequence of these interactions is production interference...
