The simulator presented here can be used to provide computationally efficient and effective guidance on fracture design and reservoir optimization to enlarge reservoir drainage area and increase...

... each targeted reservoir. Additionally, a unique stage sequencing was used to help influence hydraulic fracture growth and minimize communication between landing zones. Based on the treatment parameters and production results, models were revised, and optimization work was completed for the next four...

... Abstract Long-term (multi-year) buildup tests conducted for multi-fractured horizontal wells (MFHWs) completed in shale reservoirs offer the unique opportunity to study and analyze flow-regimes sequences that are not commonly observed with typical buildup test periods. In this study, two...

... Abstract This investigation reviews the vertical distribution of organic-rich sequences in Upper Cretaceous rocks of the northern Denver Basin. The primary objective is to provide a more complete definition of the effective source rocks in this sequence. Multiple organic-rich members...

... profiles. We treat individual well production profiles as temporal sequences and measure the similarity between any given two sequences (i.e., time series) by warping them non-linearly in the time dimension. The process of non-linear warping in the time dimension creates a "warping path," and this gives...

The next stage of the general pipeline is to upscale the kernel log (LMR) to make it suitable to be correlated with seismic data. It is done by performing a sequence of stages: accurate well tie...

... on the Stimulate Rock Volume (SRV) dimensions and complexity. The SRV is dynamic, changes during time. Addressing these changes allows us to better plan a multi-landing zone design (sequence, landing depth, well spacing, etc.) at a given period of time for this field case. The presented work goes beyond...

Due to the composite nature of cuttings, however, high resolution facies variability in sequences can be lost at a 20 or 30ft interval, making it tough to meaningfully define landing zones and integrate data from lateral wells...
