Hydraulic Fracturing Engineering and Software Solution, for Your Most Challenging Reservoirs.
Hydraulic Fracturing Engineering and Software Solution, for Your Most Challenging Reservoirs.
This 5-day course emphasizes the multi-disciplinary nature of hydraulic fracturing, covering the "Reservoir Engineering" aspects, integrated with the "Fracture Mechanics" aspects, and coupled with "Operational" considerations. This integration is absolutely necessary in order to present how to recognize opportunities for fracturing from hard rock tight gas, to offshore "frac-pack" completions, to multi-fractured horizontal shale wells....
The course is presented in a “workshop” fashion. After a brief review of fracturing pressure analysis background, basic closure pressure analysis techniques, etc., we also discuss “non-ideal” cases. These are then reviewed by working through actual case history data. This includes natural fracture (pressure dependent) loss, horizontal well DFIT, After-Closure-Analysis (ACA) type curves for detecting stress sensitive permeability, etc. Time is also...
