Frac-Hit Mitigation: Best practices for understanding and managing parent-child well interactions

June 19, 2019
Sponsored by: Drill2Frac, OptaSense, Reveal Energy Services
There are numerous frac-hit mitigation strategies, including shut-ins; temporary abandonments; frac-and-flow; small pre-loads; high-rate, water-defensive fracs; and refracs. It’s important to note that there are innovative completion techniques to help with understanding and determining the optimal mitigation technique. In this webcast we will see how three completions technologies help you understand parent-child interaction and mitigate/avoid frac hits before completing your wells. We will learn how existing data can provide a map of well signatures can be used to identify parent fractures in child wells. We will also see how analyzing pressure, acoustic and temperature variation data in real time can warn you before a frac hit occurs.
