Technology decouples fracture performance from proppant pack permeability, increasing conductivity by orders of magnitude.

The perennial shortage of water for hydraulic fracturing has encouraged the use of flowback, produced, and other non-freshwater sources in stimulation operations, but there are concerns.

A new high-viscosity synthetic polymer offers a stable method for reducing friction in harsh environment workovers and slickwater frac operations such as in North Louisiana’s Haynesville shale.

New nanostructured proppants transport deeper improving production rate and estimated ultimate recovery.

Many operators, especially those drilling in the shale gas plays, are finding out that there’s a big difference between perforating for production and perforating for stimulation.

High-pressure capabilities and large crew accommodations will enable the Blue Dolphin to offer nonstop operations in multiple well locations.

System is inherently more efficient than bleed-and-batch acidizing.

Nanoparticle-treated fracture proppant attracts and fixates formation fines with remarkable efficiency.
