Abstract This research aims to present a comprehensive workflow for predicting the performance of multistage hydraulic fracturing wells, with a specific focus on parent well depletion effect analysis, fracturing, and post-fracturing stage evaluation. The workflow will be applied to actual horizontal (HZ...

This study compares the fractured well productivity and effectiveness for six different frac fluids (slickwater, cross-linked gel...

.... However, the cost and effectiveness of different technologies at different survey frequencies are yet to be determined. Given the scale and distribution of oil and gas production sites across any basin, it is imperative to leverage numerical simulations to compare different LDAR programs, frequencies...

... Abstract In recent years, Step-Down Tests (SDTs) are being increasingly used for diagnosing completions effectiveness in plug-and-perf (PnP) fracturing in unconventional wells. SDT is primarily used to quantify pressure drop related to perforation friction, near-wellbore tortuosity (NWBT...

... Abstract The ability to determine diverter effectiveness quickly, cost effectively, as well as being operationally noninvasive has been troublesome for the industry. However, a unique approach that represents a significant change in evaluating diversion effectiveness has been developed using...

Introduction A number of often intertwined issues can complicate the effective design of a hydraulic fracture program, and in the process, restrict maximum reservoir drainage and returns from multi-fractured horizontal shale and equally low permeability formations. However, as we demonstrated...

The effectiveness of diversion was assessed through a high frequency pressure monitoring (HFPM) technique, which relies on processing surface pressure signals at high frequency. Pressure sensors were installed at the wellhead connections of both infill wells and the interpretation...
