This month, we had a presentation from ResFrac Senior Consulting Engineer, Dr. Ankush Singh, entitled, “Stress variations with depth and hydraulic fracture optimization”. He covers material from SPE papers “Optimization of Multi-Stage Hydraulic Fracturing in Unconventional Reservoirs in the Context of Stress Variations with Depth” (https://doi.org/10.2118/201739-MS) and
“Integrated Analysis of the Coupling Between Geomechanics and Operational Parameters to Optimize Hydraulic Fracture Propagation and Proppant Distribution” (https://doi.org/10.2118/194323-MS).

For Office Hours this month, we had a conversation with Mark McClure on his recent findings and observations on structured field testing, as motivated by his recent due of blog posts: “Epistemic Challenges in Subsurface Engineering, Part I: The Persistence of False Beliefs” and “Epistemic Challenges in Subsurface Engineering, Part II: Creating Value with a Hypothesis-Driven Workflow” on the ResFrac blog.

For Office Hours this month, we had a presentation on modeling cross well fiber in ResFrac, by Dr. Mojtaba Shahri. Dr. Shahri presented the findings from his HFTC paper “High Fidelity Fibre-Optic Observations and Resultant Fracture Modeling in Support of Planarity.”

For Office Hours this month, Garrett gives a high-level overview of geothermal modeling in ResFrac. He discusses geothermal model setup in ResFrac, and uses a base case to demonstrate principles

For this Office Hours, we have a presentation from Chris Hewson on using corner point models within ResFrac.

For this Office Hours, Garrett gives an introduction to the new ‘ResFrac A to Z Guide: Continuous Improvement with ResFrac.’ This guide has a step-by-step tutorial and should be especially

As you may have heard, we’ve got some big updates to ResFrac! Over the last year, our team has been working on ResFrac 3.0. The first phase of this is
