Maximize well performance and reduce well costs with StimPlan™
- Avoid wasting stimulation dollars fracturing out of zone or into neighboring wells.
- Optimize initiation point placement and treatment design to maximize return on completion costs.
- Use automated workflows and batch processing to rapidly screen stimulation designs and determine critical success factors.
- Improve fracturing effectiveness and efficiency by optimizing treatment design before testing them in the field.
- Apply variable gridding and stage dependent geologic models to ensure your design maximizes stimulated reservoir volume and hydrocarbon recovery.
- Run StimPlan™ Cloud Server to shorten run times, increase your productivity, and get to an optimum stimulation design more efficiently.
Version 8 Additions
- Interface Overhaul – based on user feedback overhaul includes dynamic dialogs for improved intuitive workflows.
- Sensitivity Studies- expanded batch capabilities for improved sensitivity studies.
- Shift Geologic Layering – New input allowing for geologic layering shifts allowing for the creation of a new geologic model for each stage.
- Analysis- Added spherical flow analysis and improved type curve analysis to After Closure Analysis feature.
- Reservoir Stimulation Compatibility – direct output of gridded fracture stimulation results into reservoir simulators like well whiz, Halliburton's QuickLook® and CMG.
