Production and Completions
Unconventional Resources Completion and Stimulation Diagnostics
Fracture diagnostics have long been used to measure achieved fracture geometry and calibrate models, and the workflow is well established for vertical wells. In multi-fractured horizontal wells in tight and unconventional reservoirs, the approach is more complex. This course shows how to set objectives, design a diagnostic programme and integrate different diagnostic technologies.
