  • Patent number: 11613986
    Abstract: A method for identifying characteristics of well data comprises receiving hydraulic fracturing data comprising data channels from a stage or stages of a hydraulic fracturing sequence and preprocessing the data channel, which may include normalizing and recalibrating the hydraulic fracturing data. The method further involves generating one or more additional higher order channels based on the normalized and recalibrated hydraulic fracturing data, the one or more additional channels derived at least in part from parameters of the normalized and recalibrated hydraulic fracturing data. The system may combine the higher order channels with the accessed data channels, and further process, combine and otherwise identify hydraulic fracturing events at the well being hydraulically fractured based on the received hydraulic fracturing data and the one or more additional channels.

  • Patent number: 11555399
    Abstract: A well completion processing system to identify breakdown pressure, diverter events and offset pressure, in time sequenced fracture data, and use the identification of the same in the modification or adjustment of parameters associated with completion, as well as the display of information in a graphical form, such as an interface. In various examples, the processing system employs higher order channels in the processing of the same.

  • Publication number: 20210017853
    Abstract: One or more aspects of the present disclosure are directed to cloud based applications that automatically and quickly identify start and end times of fracturing stages in real-time as well as one or more additional performance characteristics of the fracturing process. In one aspect, a method for real-time analysis of well data includes receiving treating data for a well in real-time, the treating data including one or more of a treating pressure channel and a slurry rate channel; preprocessing the treating data; identifying one or more stages of one or more fracturing processes in association with which the treating data is received; identifying, automatically and in real-time, a start time and an end time for each of the one or more stages; and generating a visual output of the start time and the end time of each of the one or more stages.

  • Publication number: 20200065677
    Abstract: Hydraulic fracturing data can be processed by a trained machine learning model to identify hydraulic fracturing well data characteristics corresponding with hydraulic fracturing events. The model can be trained using pre-processed hydraulic fracturing well data including multiple data channels. The trained model can then be fed hydraulic fracturing well data to identify stage start times, stage end times, and instantaneous shut-in pressure values among other well data events.

  • Patent number: 9879382
    Abstract: A multi-ply bath tissue includes cellulosic microfibers and wood pulp fibers. The bath tissue has sufficient temporary wet strength resin to provide an initial Finch Cup cross-machine direction (CD) wet tensile of from about 2.5 to about 20 g/3 in. per pound of basis weight, decaying to less than 65% of the initial value in less than 15 minutes after immersion of the tissue in water, and a caliper of at least 5 mils per 8 sheets per pound of basis weight. At least one of the plies includes a plurality of fiber-enriched hollow domed regions having a relatively high basis weight, a plurality of connecting regions having a relatively lower basis weight forming a network interconnecting the fiber-enriched hollow domed regions of the sheet, and a plurality of transition regions transitioning from the connecting regions into the fiber-enriched hollow domed regions.
