Abstract: Disclosed herein is an automated process of identifying shut-in parameters of a hydraulic fracturing operation from hydraulic fracturing treatment (HF) data. Also disclosed is a system and computer program product for automatically determining shut-in parameters from HF data. The HF data can be collected in real time during a HF from various sensors, equipment, or systems typically used in HFs or present at a well site. In one example, a method for automatically determining hydraulic fracturing parameters includes: (1) obtaining HF data, (2) determining a Rate Shut-In (RSI) time from the HF data, (3) determining a Well Shut-In (WSI) time using the RSI, and (4) calculating an Instantaneous Shut-In Pressure (ISIP) value based upon both the RSI and the WSI times, wherein determining the RSI time, the WSI time and calculating the ISIP value are automatically performed by one or more processors.

Abstract: The present teaching relates to method, system, medium, and implementations for unfragmented information management. A live information construct (LIC) represents a component for unfragmented management of information associated with the component. The LIC comprises a document space, a control space, and a work space. The document space includes documents representing a plurality aspects of the component in an unfragmented manner. The control space includes control configurations, each of which defines some communication channels used by a party to manage relevant information in the document space with limitations to be imposed on the at least one communication channel. The work space provides embedded tools accessible to a party for managing the relevant information in the LIC via the at least one communication channel within the confine of the limitations.
