Better fracs. Better wells. Better returns.
Get the physics right. Genuinely integrated hydraulic fracture and reservoir simulation.
The industry’s only fully coupled hydraulic fracturing and reservoir simulator
Fully integrated simulator
Multiphase flow, 3D fracture mechanics, proppant transport, poroelastic stresses, wellbore dynamics, and thermal effects. Mesh cracks as cracks.
Solve cutting-edge problems
Synthesize complex field-scale datasets to make practical decisions. Mitigate parent/child impacts, triple recovery factor with EOR, and design geothermal systems.
Proven impact on capital efficiency
Impacted 35+ operators by optimizing well spacing, cluster spacing, stage length, perforation design, fluid and proppant loading, and more.

Test designs in a virtual environment before implementing them in the field
- Integrate with your existing workflows Physics-based simulation is synergistic with data analytics and field data collection. Synthesize field data and accelerate the process of continuous improvement.
- Two modes of engagement We offer direct software licensing, consulting services, or a mix of both. Solutions fit for any size company - from small independents to supermajors and NOCs.
- Collaboration and experience We have worked with 35+ companies in every major shale plan in North America and co-authored 15 papers and case studies.

Welcoming Dr. Thomas Finkbeiner to the team as a Senior Technical Advisor
ResFrac is honored to welcome Dr. Thomas Finkbeiner to the team as a Senior Technical Advisor. Having lived many years in the region and consulted with Saudi Aramco and others, Thomas brings valuable technical and regional expertise to the ResFrac team. We look forward to his contribution as we develop and penetrate the rapidly growing Middle East market.
Notable papers from the 2024 SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference
Last week wrapped another outstanding SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference. Every year, I write a blog post highlighting notable HFTC papers. Here is this year’s edition! As in past years, this is not an attempt to pick the ‘best’ papers. It’s a selection of papers that I personally found insightful, based on my own interests and specialization.
Introducing StageOpt – State-of-the-Art Calculations for Optimizing Perforation Design
ResFrac Corporation is built around the ResFracPro simulator, which is the only commercial simulator that fully integrates genuine hydraulic fracture modeling and reservoir simulation. Now, we are broadening to build a complementary suite of apps – which we are called ‘ResApps.’
