  • Patent number: 11629284
    Abstract: A method of stimulating petroleum production includes introducing a fracturing fluid into a petroleum formation, thereby creating at least one fracture to stimulate the petroleum production. The fracturing fluid is introduced into the petroleum formation at a pressure above the breakdown pressure of the formation. The fracturing fluid includes a plurality of proppants where from 1 to 50 wt. % of the plurality of proppants includes micro proppants having a particle size ranging from 0.5 to 150 ?m, and from 50 to 99 wt. % of the plurality of proppants includes macro proppants having a particle size greater than 100 mesh.

  • Patent number: 11448059
    Abstract: In an example implementation, a production logging tool includes a housing that includes a first testing section defining a first central opening having a first diameter and a second testing section defining a second central opening having a second diameter different from the first diameter, a first flow sensor positioned within the first central opening, a second flow sensor positioned within the second central opening, and a sealing device configured to seal an annulus of a wellbore. The second central opening is fluidly coupled to the first central opening.
