... to achieve higher proppant pack conductivity and reduce proppant pack damage to improve potential well productivity. Microseismic monitoring was employed to assist in evaluating both completions associated with the zipper frac, using a 12-receiver downhole array in a nearby vertical well (Monitor Well C...

... Within the case study, the terms slick water and microseismic monitoring will be used. Slick water fracturing fluids are dilute aqueous solutions containing a friction reducer and possibly a biocide, surfactant, breaker, and/or clay control additive. This fluid has a low viscosity of 2 – 3 cP...

... Abstract The most accessible product of microseismic monitoring during hydraulic fracturing is the 3-dimensional seismic cloud around the wellbore. To realize the benefit of microseismic monitoring, we must quantify the data seismologically, spatially, and spatio-temporally, and compare...

... increase and causes treatment redirection to understimulated intervals along the lateral. This technique enables both fracture diversion without mechanical intervention and, when enhanced with microseismic monitoring, real-time optimization of the fracturing treatment.

... and the area of pay affected by the fracture treatment is key to maximizing the value of the completion and reservoir management program. Technology has progressed to the point that microseismic monitoring of hydraulic fracture stimulation can efficiently provide extensive diagnostic information on fracture...
