  • Fracturing operations controller
    Patent number: 11913446
    Abstract: 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.

  • Methods and system to reduce imperceptible lab experiments
    Patent number: 11111425
    Abstract: Methods may include defining operational parameters for an initial composition design; generating an initial composition design from the defined operational parameters; predicting the performance of the initial composition design using a statistical model; comparing the performance of the initial composition design with the operational parameters; optimizing the initial composition design according to the defined operational parameters; and outputting a final composition design. Methods may also include defining operational parameters for an initial composition design for a wellbore fluid; generating an initial composition design from the defined operational parameters; predicting the performance of the initial composition design using a statistical model; comparing the performance of the initial composition design with the operational parameters; optimizing the initial composition design according to the defined operational parameters; and outputting a final composition design.
