Paper presented at the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition, February 4–6, 2025
Paper Number: SPE-223520-MS
... Abstract During hydraulic fracturing, temporarily plugging existing fractures and diverting the injected slurry further into newly created fractures is beneficial for maximizing reservoir contact and productivity. Typically, the injected slurry flows into the path of least resistance, which may...

Paper Number: SPE-212369-MS
... Abstract During a bullhead refrac treatment, an Eagle Ford operator utilized active acoustic pulses to measure diverter effectiveness while continuously pumping. The goal was to determine if the fluid point of entry along the lateral would change after the diverter material seated...

... formation directly below a group of six parent wells landed in the Middle Bakken. The infill well completion technologies used in this project to mitigate frac hits included far-field diverter, near-wellbore diverter, and real-time pressure monitoring. The far-field diverter design includes a blend...

... installation. We show how DAS can be used as a tool for investigating cluster efficiency, diverter effectiveness, and for determining completions problems like screen-outs and stage communication. The analysis of the DAS data demonstrates that current fiber-optic technology can provide enough sensitivity...

... in perforation cluster efficiency. Diversion Application When determining the success of diversion, a large initial pressure increase when diverter hits formation may be detrimental to the diversion success. If the pressure increase is large enough to require a reduced treatment rate, it is likely...
