... Abstract Well spacing and stimulation design are amongst the highest impact design variables which can dictate the economics of an unconventional development. The objective of this paper is to showcase a numerical simulation workflow, with emphasis on the hydraulic fracture simulation...

... Abstract Pumping multiple unique stimulation designs in a single multistage lateral combined with particulate oil-soluble tracer chemicals (OSTs) accelerates the traditional trial and error process of optimizing stimulation designs. Applying this methodology to various fracturing sand volumes...

... this challenge it was first necessary to understand; 1) how the sub-surface could potentially influence completion and stimulation design, 2) what are the available engineering levers and moreover, 3) whether well performance has actually been impacted by tailoring completions in different plays from specific...
