Reservoir and Completions Engineer

[email protected]

Aileen Zebrowski is a reservoir and completions engineer at ResFrac focusing on reservoir data analysis, improving workflows, and customer support.

Prior to joining ResFrac, Aileen completed a master’s thesis at the University of Utah, researching the evolution of surface and subsurface steam features at the Roosevelt Hot Springs hydrothermal system. Before that, she worked in consulting as an environmental engineer in Virginia and Wisconsin for several years, conducting environmental sampling and remediation, and served a term with the Maine Conservation Corps.

Aileen earned her Master of Science degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Utah, with a tailored interest in geothermal energy. She also holds a Bachelor of Environmental Engineering degree from the University of Minnesota.

Aileen is a self-described adventurous homebody, and enjoys climbing, hiking, biking, skiing, and all-around general exploring while also enjoying the opportunity to stay home and read, play games, or strum the ukulele.

Targeting the reserves between clusters: modeling strategic refracs and infills in ResFrac

Older, wide-spacing Delaware Basin wells can leave high-pressure rock stranded between fractures. Devon used ResFrac to design liner refracs whose peak rates came in within 1% of forecast, and to show why an offset infill beats a refrac at tight cluster spacing.

Automatic Report Generation in ResFracPro

This month’s release has a feature that I am particularly excited about – automatic report generation. The reports are generated automatically when a simulation finishes. Also, reports can be generated on-demand for simulations that have already been completed. The reports are highly customizable, allowing the user to generate different line plots, 3D visualizations, preview plots, and tabular data. The user can provide a template PPT, so that the report is made with their preferred PPT style.

Introducing ResFrac’s New Multisector Capability

This month’s ResFrac release has a ton of new capabilities. The most important is called ‘multisector’ – the ability to split different sections of the well across different computers. This capability provides a computationally efficient and practical way to run larger models and handle complex scenarios. Hats off to Danial Zeinabady and Michael Nole, who have been the main developers on this project. Beyond them, it’s been a big team effort, pulling in folks from cloud, simulator, and user-success. First, let’s review – what is sector modeling? Why do we need a ‘multi’ version of it?
