... method uses real-time integration of rock mechanics during pumping stage and fluid flow in porous media during leakoff to characterize frac stage contribution. This method used to calculate each stage fracture surface area, fracture face skin, stage permeability, and detect stage interference. The stage...

... Early in the evolution of Bakken completion methods, slotted liners were subsequently replaced by the use of open-hole packers segregating ball-actuated frac ports. This method of completion provided the advantage of providing minimal time between frac stages, though the total number of frac...

... flow. They concluded that as the number of frac stages increases, the duration linear flow decreases and the boundary effected flow starts earlier. They also confirm the presence of the late linear flow (or trilinear flow) for the cases where the drainage area extended beyond the tip of the hydraulic...
