Fracturing/pressure pumping
This paper focuses on a replicable, quantitative workflow using completions-process simulation software.
This case study from ARC Resources and DarkVision outlines the use of acoustic imaging tools in two active fracturing programs in Canada to monitor well casing deformation.
This paper presents a high-fidelity, reservoir-centric stimulation-to-production modeling workflow to prevent fracture-driven interactions.

The principles behind unconventional wells lead to production profiles very different from conventional wells. High initial-production rates drop to much lower rates in a matter of months or a few years. How many in the US are currently considered low-production-rate wells? -
The deal resulted from the exercise of ConocoPhillips’ preemption right to acquire the stake when operator Origin Energy had intended to sell it to US energy investment firm EIG Global Energy Partners for $2.12 billion.

Even though total produced volumes are projected to hit new record highs in the coming years, treated water is expected to be comparatively lower than in the past, despite water disposal practices increasing oilfield seismic activity, with earthquakes nearly doubling in West Texas alone in 2021.
