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.

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
