-
Publication number: 20240026863Abstract: A method and system of recovering heat from geothermal energy with a curved producing well extending around an injection well. The injection well is substantially vertical, and the producing well is helical about the injection well. The producing well extends through a plurality of geologic fractures about the injection well formed by multiple injections made through the injection well.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: GTI ENERGYInventor: Jordan Ciezobka

Publication number: 20230123954Abstract: A method for processing proppant from a well. A plurality of proppant samples are collected during drilling of a well for imaging analysis. In addition to imaging analysis a further correction factor is determined for the samples using additional analysis on a portion of the samples. Determining and applying the correction factor to the imaging results provides a more accurate proppant log. The additional analysis can be by scanning electron microscopy, such as for differentiating the silicon proppant particles from other elemental particles resulting from the drilling.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2022Publication date: April 20, 2023Applicant: GTI ENERGYInventors: Debotyam MAITY, Jordan CIEZOBKA

Patent number: 10781680Abstract: A system and method for detecting and quantifying proppant for optimized fracture treatment design in in-fill and new wells. Proppant is isolated from drilling fluids and then analyzed to determine whether a formation within the well has been properly stimulated based on the analysis. Placement of an in-fill well may be based upon the determination of whether the well has been properly stimulated.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2018Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignee: GAS TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTEInventors: Jordan Ciezobka, Sarah Eisenlord, Debotyam Maity

Publication number: 20170335644Abstract: A frac stage isolation device including instruments for measuring pressure, temperature, salinity, pH, electromagnetic waves and/or other physical parameters such as vibrations from acoustic energy emissions during a hydraulic fracturing process. The frac stage isolation device blocks a flow passage in a frac plug to isolate a previously fracked section of a wellbore. The frac stage isolation device may also be used without a frac plug in applications requiring data acquisition.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2017Publication date: November 23, 2017Applicant: GAS TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTEInventor: Jordan CIEZOBKA
