Unconventional/complex reservoirs
The authors describe the effectiveness of an electromagnetic look-ahead service while drilling in terms of providing accurate formation profiles ahead of the bit to optimize geostopping efficiency.
The paper describes a multientry multistage fracturing technology developed to enable longer laterals, increase stage counts, improve stimulation efficiencies, and derisk operations.
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.
