Diagnostics I: Integrated Case Studies and Completion Optimization with Diagnostic Modeling

Tuesday, 31 January
Waterway 1-4
Technical
This session covers a wide variety of diagnostics, executed in a broad cross-section of plays, covering primary through infill development. The integrated diagnostic field studies are enhanced with sophisticated, but practical, modeling case studies. Contributing authors include both small and large operators, as well as small and large integrated service companies.
