Interference fracturing: Nonuniform distributions of perforation clusters that promote simultaneous growth of multiple hydraulic fractures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
One of the important hurdles in horizontal-well stimulation is the generation of hydraulic fractures (HFs) from all perforation clusters within a given stage, despite the challenges posed by stress shadowing and reservoir variability.

Split-Fluid Method Improves Fracturing Operational Efficiency

open access: yes, 2011
Split-fluid fracturing uses two fluid streams, (1) a highly concentrated slurry and (2) a clean fluid, sent to separate groups of high-pressure pumps, which is an alternative to the traditional method of supplying a lower-concentration slurry to all ...
