For the past 20 years, the diagnostic fracture injection test has been used across the frontlines of the shale revolution to paint a picture of what cannot be seen. However, that picture has not always been so clear in the eyes of subsurface engineers.
-
The industry is becoming increasingly complex, leading to changes in how universities approach education for undergraduate study.
