COURSE DESCRIPTION: Participants will understand why refracs work and how they can deliver superior economics to new well completions. With the processes discussed in the course the risks associated with refrac candidate selection, mechanical isolation, and refrac execution can be minimized to the lowest level possible.
PLEASE NOTE: PARTICIPANTS ARE REQUIRED TO BRING THEIR OWN LAPTOPS WITH MS EXCEL AND ADOBE READER INSTALLED.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
- What should a new well or refrac produce with an optimized stimulation treatment?
- What are the “best practices” to avoid stranding hydrocarbons in both types of wells?
- Where have operators done refracs and what are their economics vs new wells?
- How refracs can help avoid new infill well 40% EUR losses from asymmetric fracs.
