Abstract:
A method and a system to determine fracture properties during standard operations and injection tests. Fracture compliance, fracture closure pressure, and perforation friction can be determined using a combination of acoustic data, pressure decay data, and wellbore models. A method of automating and adjusting fracture design in real-time. A method and system to recover active, single active pulse data from a background noise dataset.
