Abstract: Pressure drawdown management is one of the most critical, yet until recently underappreciated and not fully characterized, levers of shale production performance. While rapid drawdown can deliver short-term gains, in certain reservoirs it risks compromising long-term recovery, the integrity of the fracture system, and liquid yield. This lecture explores pressure drawdown management in shale… Read More »SPE Denver General Meeting: September 2025
