Pressure fall-off data was analyzed using Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT), which decomposed the signal into different frequency levels by convolving...

... Abstract This study demonstrates the application of distributed acoustic detection (DAS) to monitor hydraulic fracturing under controlled conditions. A 100-meter flow loop was constructed, featuring 12 perforations arranged into four clusters, equipped with the controlled valves and flowmeters...

... Abstract After the hydraulic fracturing operation, the fractured wells can be shut-in for extended periods of time to allow hydrocarbons to accumulate in the fracture before starting production. In this work we study the meso-scale wettability alteration in tight sandstone reservoirs during...
