Can Proppants Do More Than Hold The Fracture Open?
In the 1940’s experimental fracture treatments were performed without proppant. However in most formations unpropped fractures heal quickly with no sustained benefit, and in 1947 river sand was introduced as proppant. Learn More
Engineering Effective and Efficient Completions
Data-driven modeling and on-site analytics allow operators to optimize their completions, thereby increasing EUR and delivering a better ROI. World Oil, March 2016 Learn More
Using data-driven modeling to understand multi-fractured, horizontal Marcellus completions
A data-driven, neural network model was developed to quickly and economically evaluate completion effectiveness for Marcellus shale wells. This model was used to identify significant opportunity to improve production for new wells by modifying completion and frac design. World Oil, Shaletech Report, May 2015 Learn More
A low-density proppant solution for slickwater systems
Slickwater systems tend to have low viscosity, which can attribute to difficulty with effectively suspending and transporting proppant in a fracture. Accordingly, a new, low-density proppant has been developed to enhance the transport capability in slickwater fluids and provide increased fracture conductivity. World Oil, September 2018 Learn More
