Publication number: 20240077071Abstract: A system can include one or more processors; memory; a data interface that receives data; a control interface that transmits control signals for control of pumps of a hydraulic fracturing operation; and one or more components that can include one or more of a modeling component that predicts pressure in a well fluidly coupled to at least one of the pumps, a pumping rate adjustment component that generates a pumping rate control signal for transmission via the control interface, a capacity component that estimates a real-time pumping capacity for each individual pump, and a control component that, for a target pumping rate for the pumps during the hydraulic fracturing operation, generates at least one of engine throttle and transmission gear settings for each of the individual pumps using an estimated real-time pumping capacity for each individual pump where the settings are transmissible via the control interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Nan MU, Yan P. KUHN DE CHIZELLE, Florence BINET, Manbro LEE, Alexander Tanner TAYLOR, Bryan SUHARIK, Clare SCHOENE, James MATTHEWS, Bao MI, Muktabh ANCHLIA

Publication number: 20130277047Abstract: A technique utilizes micro-tubing to facilitate performance of a well treatment in which the micro-tubing is deployed for cooperation with a larger tubing, such as a coiled tubing positioned in wellbore. The micro-tubing is used to deliver a separated chemical downhole to modify a property of a treatment fluid used in performing a desired well treatment operation at a desired treatment region along the wellbore. A variety of additional components may be combined with the micro-tubing to further facilitate the treatment application.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2011Publication date: October 24, 2013Applicant: SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Yan P.

Publication number: 20100288490Abstract: This invention relates to the oil and gas industry, more specifically, to the development of heavy oil and asphaltic bitumen deposits. The method of determining the filtration properties of rocks comprises providing contrasting temperature fluid circulation in the well; supplying the fluid is in the quantity required for partial fluid absorption in the annulus; stopping fluid circulation in the well; measuring temperature along the well bore as from circulation stoppage and until the achievement of a thermally stable condition; obtaining a temperature vs time curve along the well bore; determining the filtration properties of rocks using a data averaging model. Fluid viscosity is modified by chemical additives for non-horizontal wells.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2007Publication date: November 18, 2010Applicant: SCHLUMBERGER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Marat Tokhtarovich Nukhaev, Vladimir Vasilievich Tertychnyi, Alexandr Nikolaevich Shandrygin, Yan P.
