Hydraulic Fracturing Design Optimization - Bakken Case Study

The case study is prepared to illustrate the capabilities of the optiFracMS multistage fracturing optimization software.

The goal of the study is to optimize a fracturing design for a Bakken formation.

Two fracture design cases were considered:

  1. Operating company fracture design based on a Big Data application
  2. optiFracMS optimized fracturing design


For the both cases a production forecast was calculated and cumulative oil production was compared.
