Fracturing/pressure pumping
This article from the SPE Research and Development Technical Section offers new insights to how the upstream industry can benefit from the emergence of quantum computing.
This contributed article highlights the growing importance of fiber-optic sensing and its potential to advance thanks to emerging quantum technologies.
This case study presents the first field deployment of acoustic fracturing analysis to evaluate perforation efficiency and implement real-time interventions during pressure pumping.

SponsoredCatalyst Energy Services’ innovative technology lowers CO2 equivalent greenhouse gas emissions up to 40% and reduces waste up to 99% without sacrificing production output.
-
Another day, another deal for ProFrac.
-
Hitting the next well during fracturing happens all the time. Predictably doing that on a large scale in granite looks a lot harder.
-
New automated technology is making it possible to run pressure pumps for days on end.
-
The latest ruling reverses a lower court decision to block the Ecopetrol and ExxonMobil programs in the Andean nation.
-
This paper explores a holistic approach to characterize trouble stages by applying automated event recognition of abnormal pressure increases and associating those events with formation and operational causes.
-
In this paper, the authors discuss what components have contributed to recent proppant-placement cost reductions and use several case studies to illustrate the potential for further cost reductions.
-
This paper presents a new real-time method to estimate stage-to-stage interference and well-to-well interference and their implications on completions efficiency.
-
Oil companies would have to pay a premium for the hardware and services needed for rapid expansion. But is that likely?
-
Liberty will be integrating Seismos’ measurements-while-fracturing system into its completions service to analyze near-wellbore fracture networks and create a near-field connectivity index.
