SPE Workshop: Geomechanics
Applications in Unconventional
Reservoir Development

15–16 OCTOBER 2024 | GALVESTON, TEXAS

SPONSOR THIS WORKSHOP

Refracturing creates highly attractive opportunities to use existing wellbores for additional hydrocarbon recovery without having to drill a new well, reducing environment impact and capital required. 

As completion designs improve through time, the prior vintage wells in a field are seen as attractive opportunities with stranded volumes of commercial hydrocarbons. Refracturing is a proven approach to economically recover those previously stranded resources.

Refracturing parent wells has also become a valuable option for mitigating the impacts of fracture driven interactions from infill wells or child wells, leading many operators to co-develop refracturing of projects alongside new drill activity.

LEARN MORE   SPONSOR THIS EVENT

This workshop creates a venue for attendees to engage with subject matter experts on a variety of technologies, well conditions and lessons learned.  It is an opportunity to network as well as to learn the newest developments.

WORKSHOP TOPICS

  • Candidate ranking and refracturing program management
  • Co-development of refracs with new drill wells, and management of fracture driven interactions
  • Deployment techniques and intervention requirements
  • Zonal isolation and chemical/mechanical diversion
  • Refracture stimulation design and modeling
  • Diagnostics and surveillance
  • Future & emerging technologies
  • Successes, failures and lessons learned

LEARN

The agenda includes research-based, field-tested industry topics so attendees receive current and relevant technical knowledge.
