PAPER PRE SENTAT I ON

Title of the paper: Analysis of techniques used for perforation and interference of pressure trends during hydraulic fracturing.

Presented at: Intra College Society of Petroleum Engineers Fest (Symposium). Year of presentation: 2013.

Objective of the paper: Analysing perforation Techniques during fracking process. Findings and Conclusions:

More than 35 fracturing treatments were successfully pumped in a month on a routine basis using sand plug isolation as a result of the usage of hydrajetting technology thereby turning it into a cost-effective operations. It was an achievement as compared to the previous campaigns where only wireline was used and a maximum of 14 jobs were possible in a month.

It was found that the friction pressures near wellbore and perforation are lower than the wireline perforated zones with fewer perforations and larger diameter.

Low-concentration sand slugs (0.5 – 1ppa, depending upon the pressures) were employed to bridge off the micro- fractures and reduce the fluid leak off into the natural fractures, which helped to improve the length extension achieved while performing the fracturing treatment. There were two sand slugs employed with pad stages in between to achieve better bridging.

Large diameter holes were also generated by the sand jet perforation to reduce the near wellbore damage to a large extent.
