Well Stimulation: Practical and Applied
Poor attention to detail in stimulation work often leads to disappointing results. This practical course gives those who plan, carry out and evaluate treatments a solid grounding in the basics so they can make better decisions. It covers choosing the right technique for each formation and applying non-acid, acid and hydraulic fracturing concepts in conventional and shale plays.
