SUMMARY:October General Meeting: Fractional Dimension Rate Transient Analysis
DESCRIPTION:  \nFractional Dimension Rate Transient Analysis (FD-RTA): A Key to\nUnconventional Wells and Complex Fracture Networks\nJorge A Acuña\nJ Acuna Consulting\, LLC. \nAbstract:\nUnconventional wells show features that make them very difficult to characterize. One of them is the “transitional” flow regime that lasts months to years and is different from known flow regimes such as linear or boundary dominated flow. Fractional Dimension RTA (FD-RTA) is based on work on fractals and fractional dimension systems from the late 80’s and early 90’s. These principles were significantly expanded with innovative elements\, rigorous solutions\, modeling techniques\, and adapted to the geometry of unconventional wells. The result is FD-RTA\, a new technique to analyze and understand fracture networks ranging from complex ones with rock fragments of many different sizes to simple ones with equally spaced fractures. This lecture explains the evolution of these ideas and the power of the fractional dimension approach to explain “transitional” flow regimes as the result of fracture complexity. In this new approach\, known flow regimes such as radial or linear flow are only special cases of a single general transient solution. The approach can be easily converted to a numerical model and explains several previously unexplained features\, such as rapidly increasing gas-oil-ratio\, apparent fracture closure with time\, etc. The power of FD-RTA is demonstrated by applying it to parent-child well interference. I would like the members to take away the idea that basic methods for pressure and rate transient analysis can explain previously unexplained features of unconventional well behavior but only when the correct model for fracture geometry is considered. \nBiography:\nDr. Jorge Acuna graduated from USC in 1993\, where he worked on transient behavior of fractal networks of fractures. He joined Chevron (then Unocal) in 1996. He became a leading expert in geothermal modeling and reservoir engineering. He started work in unconventional pressure and rate transient analysis in 2012 and developed Fractional Dimension RTA between 2016 and 2020. The method was published and implemented in commercial software. He retired from Chevron in 2022 to start his own consulting firm J. Acuna Consulting. He has authored more than 30 papers\, regularly reviews SPE papers and has participated as session chair in SPE conferences. \n  \nRegister Here \n

SUMMARY:SPE YP Lunch and Learn
DESCRIPTION:SPE YP is hosting a lunch and learn on November 7th! Lunch will be sponsored by ChampionX and the venue will be sponsored by Liberty Energy! \nAbstract: \nAutomation has been used for many years now as a means for oil and gas operators to optimize sucker rod pump wells. Traditional automation for rod pump wells involved operating the well at a fixed speed and idling the well based on a preprogramed time (time clocks) or fillage (pump off control). However\, utilizing a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)is a more sophisticated method to allow operators to increase their runtime by detecting when there is less fluid to produce and slowing the unit down\, accordingly. Although utilizing a VFD can provide significant improvements in production and failure reduction\, in some cases operators are not able to realize the full advantage of their rod pump wells with VFDs because the VFD setpoints are not optimized. Optimizing VFD setpoints is not necessarily challenging\, but in many cases requires many iterations of user intervention which takes time\, and with the ever-changing nature of some reservoirs\, that job may never be complete for a given well. However\, utilizing a host software with algorithms developed by industry experts\, VFD setpoint optimization can be done autonomously. Using domain-specific algorithms\, the host software can detect deficiencies in VFD operations and iterate through setpoint changes to determine the optimal setpoints. Utilizing host software\, the algorithms can constantly check to make sure that the setpoints are keeping the well running optimally\, even when reservoir conditions change. By identifying issues like excessive cycling\, lost production\, unnecessary speed changes\, and poor pump fillage\, the algorithms implement changes that improve the performance of the well and help operators leverage the full capabilities of their VFD. \nAbout our Speaker: \nIan has an undergraduate degree in petroleum engineering and a master’s degree in mechanical engineering. He joined the Theta/ChampionX team (formerly Dover and then Apergy before ChampionX) back in 2016 as an artificial lift engineer. He also was the support team manager and product line manager before starting a new role managing the customer success team. \n  \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:November General Meeting: Utah Forge - Seeing is Believing with Advanced Tracer Interpretation
DESCRIPTION:  \nUtah FORGE – Seeing is Believing \nwith Advanced Tracer Interpretation\n \nChristopher N. Fredd\, Olaf Huseby\, Sven K. Hartvig\, Partho Giri \nResman Energy Technology \n  \nThe Utah FORGE project relies on multistage hydraulic fracturing to create flow connections between injection and production wells for renewable Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) applications.  Sponsored by the Department of Energy\, this test laboratory has been used to evaluate the impact of completion and stimulation design changes\, including the number of clusters per stage\, fracturing fluid type\, and fracturing methodology.  Understanding and characterizing the impact of these design changes on the fracture connections is key to optimizing enthalpy output from the system.  \nThis field case study presents insights gained from novel tracer interpretation at Utah FORGE. Unique chemical tracers were injected during each of the 8 fracturing stages in an EGS injection well\, with additional tracer pulses injected at different times during one of the stages. Tracer responses were established from samples collected both from the injection well during flowback and the production well during a circulation test.  Tracer interpretation provided quantitative PLTs for both wells\, characterized the fracture connections (fracture driven interactions)\, characterized the fracture flow paths (e.g.\, fracture complexity)\, and estimated the fracture circulation volume and efficiency.  These interpretations were compared with other measurements\, including microseismic monitoring\, fiber optic strain rate\, and mechanical PLT logs.  The results demonstrate that advance tracer interpretations offer a direct measure of flow paths not seen by other techniques and reveal the impact of the various design variables\, such as a significant dependance on the number of clusters per stage\, cluster runaway\, and fracturing issues.  \nThe novel tracer interpretation methodology is directly applicable to unconventional assets. \n  \n \nChris Fredd serves as the Stimulation Mapping Technical Director for RESMAN Energy Technology.  He has more than 25 years of experience in the energy sector and is a subject matter expert in stimulation\, completions\, and technology integration.  Chris has a unique techno-commercial background and a proven track record of delivering leading technologies and practical solutions.  He previously held a variety of senior technology leadership positions with SLB including Technology Center Director and Global Business Development Manager.  Chris earned a Ph.D. degree in chemical engineering from the University of Michigan and holds more than 30 granted patents and 40 publications. \n  \nRegister Here \n

SUMMARY:December General Meeting: Rockies Resource Rumble
DESCRIPTION:Rockies Resource Rumble: Using Machine Learning to Determine if the DJ Can Compete with the Venerable Williston or the Upstart PRB\nAs consolidation reshapes the landscape and E&Ps gear up for sustained operations\, a pressing question arises: “Which Rockies operators and regions are best poised to thrive over the next decade?” In this analysis\, we delve into key factors like inter-basin rock quality variations\, half-cycle benchmarking\, and operator rankings. Leveraging Novi’s proprietary machine learning tools\, we aim to uncover the value of remaining inventory in each basin and identify the operators best positioned to capitalize on it. \n  \nPresenter: Brandon Myers (Head of Research at Novi Lab) \n \nBio \n  \nBrandon’s skillset sits at the intersection of data science\, energy finance\, and petrophysics. His career journey began in 2015 at a micro-cap E&P startup in Calgary\, Alberta\, where they were involved in asset acquisition efforts\, notably pursuing the Harmattan East Viking field. \nFrom there\, he transitioned to Houston\, Texas\, and joined Wood Mackenzie\, where he played a vital role in integrating petrophysical and geological insights into economic analyses. Over five years\, Brandon gained extensive experience covering every unconventional play across North America. Departing from Wood Mackenzie in 2022\, Brandon joined the venerable Peters & Co. as an in-house subject matter expert\, providing insights into U.S. unconventional plays and emerging technologies like lithium brines\, helium exploration\, hydrogen\, and renewables. \nNow\, as Head of Research at Novi\, Brandon leads the development of a machine learning-centric research platform to provide the upstream industry with cutting edge\, data-driven insights. \nRegister Here\n

SUMMARY:SPE Denver January General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:What’s up with U-Laterals\nDiscover how U-laterals are revolutionizing well economics in previously unreachable sections! With nearly 100 U-lateral wells drilled across major US basins\, this presentation dives into the exciting world of U-laterals. We’ll explore their impressive economic benefits\, recent advancements\, and the innovative planning and execution strategies that make them a game-changer. \nLearn about the unique U-shaped wellbore design that allows operators to tap into resources that traditional methods can’t reach. U-laterals are not just a clever idea—they’re a proven solution for boosting hydrocarbon production and cutting costs. \nWe’ll cover the latest in drilling technology\, from conventional mud motors to rotary steerable systems\, and how these tools are making U-laterals more feasible than ever. You’ll hear about real-world successes\, the challenges of drilling and tripping bottom hole assemblies\, and the geo-mechanical considerations that ensure these wells perform optimally. \nPlus\, get an insider’s look at Shell’s patented U-lateral design and see how this innovation is setting new standards in directional drilling. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to the field\, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the future of well drilling. \n  \nSpeaker Bio: \n \nJohn Huycke is a life-long drilling engineer with three decades of experience. His career has spanned assignments in the Delaware Basin\, Anadarko Basin\, Powder River Basin\, DJ Basin\, Uintah Basin\, Bohai Bay China\, deepwater Gulf of Mexico\, Gulf of Mexico\, Norway\, Nigeria and the Bakken holding positions of drilling engineer to drilling manager and back down again. He earned a BS in Petroleum Engineering at the University of Kansas and an MS in Petroleum Engineering at the University of Texas. At PDC Energy\, John was instrumental in planning and executing the first multi-well U lateral development as part of a highly motivated interdisciplinary asset team. \n  \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:SPE Denver February General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Society of Petroleum Engineers\nDistinguished Lecturer 2024-25 Lecture Season\nESG for Petroleum Engineers – Without the Hot Air\n(What the International Capital Markets Expect from the Oil & Gas Industry)\nAbstract:\nEnvironmental\, Social and Governance (ESG) continues to gain attention. Increasingly\, ESG\ncompliance is a condition for funding by shareholders and banks. Most recently\, the European Union\nhas started to turn ESG industry standards into regulation. Unfortunately\, ESG has become clouded in\nan overload of jargon\, requirements and metrics; in addition\, it is now also becoming politicized.\nThis lecture shows that ESG has been developing since the start of the industrial revolution and is here\nto stay. It will identify key long term ESG trends and will use them to foresee what the future may bring.\nThe capital markets have converged on a handful of industry standards that are almost universally\naccepted and applied by all major financial organizations. These standards are risk- and value-based\,\nand project focused. As such they are a blessing in disguise: although elaborate and demanding\, they\nprovide a level playing field and can be easily integrated in existing business processes.\nESG scrutiny is moving from auditing of policies and manuals to carrying out due diligence on actual\nimplementation in the field. In other words\, petroleum engineers\, project and operations managers have\nbecome part of ESG compliance. This lecture will use case studies to highlight the essentials that they\nneed to know.\nBiography: \n\nChristiaan Luca holds a MSc in petroleum engineering from Delft University\, the Netherlands. The first\npart of his 32-year career with Shell he spent in various petroleum engineering roles\, including drilling\,\nreservoir engineering\, project planning and economics\, while developing oil and gas fields in Thailand\,\nSyria\, Gabon and Nigeria.\nUpon returning to Shell’s corporate offices in the Netherlands he held various management roles in\ntechnology and business strategy and planning. He was closely involved with externally challenged\nprograms in CCS and Rigs-to-Reefs. Until end 2016\, Christiaan was the head of Shell’s global practice\nin non-technical risk management. He now is an independent trainer\, assessor and coach in this\nexpertise area. \n  \nRegister Here
