Fracturing/pressure pumping
This study aims to thoroughly assess the influence of various completions, fracturing stimulation, and intrinsic reservoir properties affecting the productivity of 10 major unconventional plays while uncovering insights and trends unique to each play
This paper investigates condensate-banking effects on well performance by conducting field-modeling studies on Delaware Basin deep Wolfcamp condensate producers using compositional simulation models with hydraulic fractures.
Modern completions often are equipped with downhole measurement devices that provide critical real-time data not only during the hydraulic fracturing treatment but also during the ensuing production phase.
