Nowadays downhole temperature is systematically recorded in testing operations or
slickline surveys. In most cases these temperature measurements are largely ignored and …

Pore pressure in unconventional reservoirs has been identified as one of the key drivers in
well performance. Additionally, pore pressure variations between strata may strongly …

Diagnostic fracture injection tests (DFIT) are commonly used to characterize stress and
reservoir properties in unconventional reservoirs. Although simple in concept, interpreting …

A unique family of advanced ceramic proppants has been developed based on formulated
mixed-metal oxides. In contrast to conventional top-down ceramic proppant manufacturing, a …

Diagnostic fracture injection testing (DFIT) is an extremely popular technique to generate
direct estimates of some of the key characteristics of shale reservoirs. DFIT analysis is …

Fracture contact area is the critical factor determining post-treatment production after multi-
stage hydraulic fracturing. At present, there are no effective methods for the estimation of the …

(57) ABSTRACT A method of performing a stimulation operation for a subterranean
formation penetrated by a wellbore is pro vided. The method involves collecting pressure …

Diagnostic fracture injection tests (DFIT) are commonly used to characterize stress and
reservoir properties in unconventional reservoirs. Although simple in concept, interpreting …

In tight reservoirs development such as shale gas it is important and yet difficult to predict the
size and orientation of the drainage area around a hydraulically fractured well. Often the …

Diagnostic fracture-injection testing (DFIT) has gained widespread usage in the evaluation
of unconventional reservoirs. DFIT entails injection of water above the formation-parting …
