    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.
