... Abstract A well which was drilled in the Pronghorn formation of the Williston Basin had significant trouble during the cementing process. While the lateral length was 11,103 feet, only the 9,296 feet of the lateral closest to the toe had adequate cement to provide the isolation needed...

... Abstract This paper describes design methodology, execution details, and production results of stimulation treatments in openhole sections of laterals in the Williston Basin. It will be demonstrated that a sequenced fracturing technique utilizing appropriate hydraulic fracturing design...

..., the number of hydraulic fracturing stages has increased. The total proppant pumped per lateral foot has also increased. The majority of the existing wells were completed with geometrically spaced multiple perforation clusters per stage. Sometimes more than six clusters per stage have been employed. Studies...

... Abstract The drilling and completion of wells in resource plays has tended to be based on drilling a pre-determined number of wells with uniformly spaced laterals drilled on pre-defined azimuths. The development of resource plays is now incorporating geophysics. Workflows have been developed...

This paper describes the process that was applied to achieve the engineered staging of these wells. It details the initial geological...

A special flow-thru frac plug was designed so that it could be pumped through the 4-in. tie-back casing and set in the 4-1/2-in. lateral, allowing a plug-and-perf fracture completion to be performed.
