2. Identifying which completions work in which reservoirs and importantly,
which do not, is the key to Canadian horizontal well economics in 2014; and
understanding how the optimal frac density, cluster spacing, fluid systems,
proppant volumes and pump rates change with lithology is of course the most
powerful cost-reduction insight an operator can attain.
But as new wells are drilled in new fields and indeed new formations such as the
the, Swan Hills, Slave Point and Viking the lack of data is impending the rate at
which operators can tailor their completions design to optimize recovery at the
lowest costs on new wells.
The purpose of the first Horizontal Completions Optimization, Western
Canada 2014 Congress, taking place in Calgary on June 24-25, is to collate
correlated data on reservoir characteristics and completions design with
production performance to determine optimal completions strategies for new
wells and reduce the cost of horizontal completions in liquid rich carbonate, shale,
waterflooded and layered plays.
NEW TECHNOLOGIES - NEW DATA - NEW PLAYS
Rapid technological advancements in completions systems, fluid types and proppants
can allow operators to achieve greater depths and fracture layered formations with less
expenditure on operation time and equipment costs, but only through effective tool
deployment and combined knowledge of the reservoir.
Improved diagnostics and core analysis techniques in the past two years have enabled
operators to gain a heightened understanding of formation characteristics, lithology,
rock composition and stress regimes across reservoirs. However, the challenge
remains to isolate and compare completions variables and reservoir characteristics
with production results to pinpoint the factors that will improve fracturing operations,
achieve more accurate frac modeling and increase stimulated reservoir volumes.
The Horizontal Completions Optimization Western Canada 2014 Congress
will combine the foremost technological developments in completions design with
comprehensive evaluation of formation specific challenges impacting fracture
execution across the WCSB’s most lucrative plays, through comparison based
technical talks and play specific case studies.
The operator led sessions will evaluate completions design and fracture stimulation
in the Montney, Cardium, Duvernay, Viking, Swan Hills and Bakken by comparing
variables including system selection, frac fluids, proppant types, well spacing
and design to determine the optimal completions design to combat formation
characteristics including layered shale reservoirs, sandstone, carbonates,
limestone, HPHT and formation heterogeneity throughout the WCSB.
“Completions Have Eclipsed Everything Else From Both A Dollars
And Complexity Perspective Over The Last Few Years.”
WHATISUNIQUEABOUTTHISCONGRESS?
• DATA DRIVEN SOLUTIONS: Correlated
data between reservoir, completions types and
production performance is key in optimizing well
economics, therefore a full 2 days have been
entirely dedicated to data driven solutions for the
optimization of horizontal completions operations
• EMPHASIS ON COST REDUCTION:
As completions cost represent the highest
expenditure in any well, the agenda has been
designed to provide comparisons of production
results, completion types used and overall costs
to allow operators to gain practical solutions
for improving long-term recovery and reducing
overall completions costs
• FORMATION SPECIFIC CASE STUDIES:
Completions designs and executions need
tailored to the formation specifications they are
operating in therefore separate E&P led case
studies will examine results from sandstone,
limestone, carbonate, shale, tight and multi-
layered formation completions in the most
lucrative WCSB plays to demonstrate the most
current and successful completions operations for
various rock types
• DUVERNAY FOCUS: With the Duvernay rapidly
becoming potentially one of Canada’s most
lucrative unconventional oil and gas prospects,
a section has been dedicated specifically to
the play. Case studies from leading Duvernay
operators will provide results and learning’s on
how to economically complete wells with high
deliverability in the deep, tight Duvernay reservoir
• RESERVOIR INTERPRETATION: Day 2
provides results-based studies for improving
fracture stimulation through the analysis of
stress regimes, rock type and micoseismic data
analysis to improve frac modeling and maximize
stimulated reservoir volume across every play
