Frac Fleet pumping BroadBand unconventional reservoir completion services

Maximize hydrocarbon production and recovery with fracturing technology optimized for your reservoir

Operators restimulating or completing new hydraulically fractured wells in unconventional reservoirs seek to increase oil production and recovery through effective and efficient wellbore coverage and reservoir contact. With today’s common geometric completion approach, approximately 40% of the perforation clusters and more than 40% of the hydraulic fracture networks do not contribute to production, resulting in 40% of the unconventional wells in North America being uneconomical.

Unlock the potential of unconventional reservoirs

BroadBand unconventional reservoir completion services maximize wellbore coverage and reservoir contact to increase production and recovery. Every fracture is stimulated and propped open from tip to wellbore to shift that 40% of uneconomical wells toward 100% economic wells.

When BroadBand Shield service is used to stimulate an infill well (light green), far-field diversion (yellow) limits fracture growth outside of the designed fracture area, preventing communication with neighboring wells and increasing fracture complexity.

BroadBand Shield fracture-geometry control service

Minimize the risk of communicating with neighboring wells or fracturing into undesirable zones while increasing fracture complexity
