fracturing

Chevron and Halliburton describe how they built and deployed the fully autonomous closed-loop fracturing system that enables subsurface-driven optimization.

This paper presents a case study of a tool-free fishbone fracture stimulation technology using sand jetting and acidizing in openhole wells, providing a technical solution for low-permeability and complex-lithology carbonate reservoirs in the Middle East.

A Chinese operator in the Sichuan Basin used high‑frequency pressure monitoring to evaluate frac performance in unconventional wells.

The paper describes a multientry multistage fracturing technology developed to enable longer laterals, increase stage counts, improve stimulation efficiencies, and derisk operations.

Major increases in hydrocarbon production require both incremental and revolutionary technologies, industry leaders said during the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference.

This paper describes an alternative lower-completion concept for developing Lower Wilcox reservoirs referred to as high-angle multifractured well design.

This paper discusses the development of a multientry, multistage fracturing system and its advantages over traditional openhole multistage fracturing solutions.

In this paper, an energy-based 3D fracture-reconstruction method is proposed to derive the complex fracture network from microseismic data in a shale gas reservoir.

Operators tell an audience at the Unconventional Resources Technology Conference how a hybrid expandable liner system and machine-learning-based analysis improve the bottom line.

Matthew Bryant has spent years trying to convince engineers that the API proppant testing standard has significant limitations. And he may well be right.
