Abstract: System and methods of controlling fracture growth during multi-well stimulation treatments. The flow distribution of treatment fluid injected into first and second well formation entry points along multiple wellbores is monitored during a current stage of a multi-well, multistage stimulation treatment. Upon determining the fracture growth and/or monitored flow distribution meets a threshold, a remainder of the current stage is partitioned into a plurality of treatment cycles and at least one diversion phase. A portion of the fluid to be injected into the first well and/or second well formation entry points is allocated to each of the treatment cycles of the partitioned stage. The treatment cycles are performed for the remainder of the current stage using the treatment fluid allocated to each treatment cycle, wherein the flow distribution is adjusted so as not to meet the threshold.

Abstract: System and methods of controlling fluid flow during reservoir stimulation treatments are provided. A flow distribution of treatment fluid injected into formation entry points along a wellbore path is monitored during a current stage of a multistage stimulation treatment. Upon determining that the monitored flow distribution meets a threshold, a remainder of the current stage is partitioned into a plurality of treatment cycles and at least one diversion phase for diverting the fluid to be injected away from one or more formation entry points between consecutive treatment cycles. A portion of the fluid to be injected into the formation entry points is allocated to each of the treatment cycles of the partitioned stage. The treatment cycles are performed for the remainder of the current stage using the treatment fluid allocated to each treatment cycle, wherein the flow distribution is adjusted so as not to meet the threshold.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for controlling a hydraulic fracturing job. Diagnostics data of a hydraulic fracturing completion of a wellbore can be received. A fracture formation model that models formation characteristics of fractures formed through the wellbore into a formation surrounding the wellbore during the hydraulic fracturing completion with respect to surface variables can be accessed. A subsurface objective function of fracture complexity can be selected from a plurality of subsurface objective functions for changing one or more of the formation characteristics of the fractures. The fracture formation model can be applied based on the diagnostics data to determine values of the surface variables for controlling the formation characteristics of the fractures to converge on the subsurface objective function of fracture complexity. As follows, a fracture completion plan can be formed based on the values of the surface variables.

Abstract: System and methods of controlling diverter placement during stimulation treatments are provided. Data relating to at least one downhole parameter is obtained for a current treatment stage within a subsurface formation. A response of the diverter to be injected during a diversion phase of the current stage on the downhole parameter is estimated, based on the obtained data and a diagnostic data model. Values for diversion control parameters are calculated, based on the estimated response. As the diverter is injected into the formation, an actual response of the diverter is monitored. Upon determining that a difference between the actual and estimated response exceeds an error tolerance threshold, the model is updated. The model is further updated over subsequent iterations of the diversion phase when the actual response is less than the estimated response. Subsequent diversion phases are performed over a remainder of the current stage, based on the updated model.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for controlling a hydraulic fracturing job. A fracturing completion model can be applied to identify a plurality of possible fracturing completion plans for completing one or more wellbores at a target completion. The plurality of possible fracturing completion plans can include varying values of fracturing completion parameters and/or reservoir parameters. Completion characteristic data of the one or more wellbores can be gathered in response to application of at least a portion of a fracturing completion plan of the possible fracturing completion plans. Further, the completion characteristic data can be used to determine whether to apply a different fracturing completion plan of the possible fracturing completion plans. In turn, if it is determined to apply the different fracturing completion plan, then the method can include facilitating switching to the different fracturing completion plan in completing the one or more wellbores.

Abstract: A method of controlling a pumping sequence of a fracturing fleet at a wellsite while performing a fracturing job on a treatment wellbore penetrating a subterranean formation. A modeling application receives sensor data from the treatment wellbore and/or a monitoring wellbore, predicts a fracture propagation within the formation, and produces a pumping sequence to obtain the fracture propagation or a real-time update to the pumping sequence. The pumping can include two or more sub-stages, wherein the modeling application employs a first pumping routine model to provide a first sub-stage of the pumping sequence and employs a second pumping routine model to provide a second sub-stage of the pumping sequence. A managing application controls the fracturing fleet in accordance with the pumping sequence to place a fracturing fluid in the treatment well.

Plugging criteria may be identified based on the flow distribution and characteristics associated with perforation plugs to be dropped into a wellbore associated with the subsurface formation may be determined based on the flow distribution, characteristics of the one or more clusters, and the plugging objective. The perforation plugs may be dropped into the wellbore. The perforation plugs may have tracers which indicate whether the perforation plugs reached a location associated with the one or more clusters.
