How MicroSeismic Surface Array Data Maximizes NPV in Hydraulic Fracturing Monitoring
Taming Frac-Driven Interactions
Stress changes due to treatment order influences fluid and proppant flow
- Compounding Pore-Pressures
- Stresses rotate
- Focal Mechanisms change (e.g. Normal Dip-Slip to Strike-Slip in Normal Stress Regime)
- Isolated wells
- Fluid and proppant located in targeted zone
- Rapid stage lag
- Contains treatment on either side of well
- Long stage lag
- Loss of fluid and proppant to previously treated well
New Acreage
Treatment can be adjusted in real-time
- Determine treatment design and associated spacing sensitivities (e.g. stage and wellbore spacing)
- Run iterative field diagnostics
- Numerically calibrate model
- Test modeled results in real time, update model and make changes as needed
- Understand if treatment is staying in zone
- Assess effectiveness of treatment (e.g. diverter)
- Adjust injected volume and proppant mass accordingly
- Determine if frac-hits are occurring on offset wells
Refracturing Without a New Liner
A low-rate, long-duration pressurization step maintains pressure below the fracture closure pressure and encourages re-pressurization of the entire lateral.
- Assess effectiveness of diverter at wellbore scale
- Determine if rock is breaking during initial pressurization step
- Determine if treatment is effectively stimulating entire wellbore
Infill Drilling
Pressurizing parent well reduces fluid propagation of child well towards depleted parent well.
- EUR uplift +25%
- ROI after 1-2 months of production
- Child-parent and child-child interactions are observed during microseismic monitoring
- Moving beyond the dots-in-the-box to fracture permeability models permits a rapid evaluation of the impact child wells have on child/parent wells
Geohazards
Faulting can be identified in real time by focal mechanisms allowing for rapid adjustments to treatment design
- Faults are detectable in real time
- This permits rapid adjustment to treatment design such as:
- Lowering rate
- Increasing viscosity
- Injecting diverter
- Defining no perf zones
