... Abstract The objective of this paper is to present findings from a causation investigation of casing failures occurring during fracturing operations. The study analyzed case histories and examined post-failure laboratory results. Outcomes from casing failures include blowouts, pollution...

... toward the end of the perforated interval, which results in uneven proppant distribution. Empirical data as well as laboratory tests have yet to be challenged against the few studies that exist. This paper presents a first- of-its-kind large-scale investigation that was conducted to study proppant...

... Abstract In this study we have undertaken a systematic investigation of the interactive effects of the key parameters that affect the final conductivity of a propped fracture, including flow back rate, proppant loading, polymer loading in the fracture fluid, the presence or absence of breaker...

... Abstract This paper presents the results of an investigation into fracture growth pattern in three horizontal wells, each fractured multiple times. The completion system was selected such that it allowed recording of the bottom-hole pressure in two critical locations; at the frac port which...
