Fracturing/pressure pumping
This work demonstrates that a carefully engineered wireline perforation strategy can address the challenges of long-interval high-pressure/high-temperature completions with large intrareservoir-pressure differentials safely and effectively.
This paper provides an account of the design, implementation, and operational insights from an enhanced geothermal system proppant stimulation targeting a volcanic, dry rock setting with an approximately 330°C bottomhole temperature.
