Real-time, continuous-flow pressure diagnostics for analyzing and designing diversion cycles of fracturing operations

摘要

Fracturing operations that include fluid diversion cycles may include real-time, continuous-flow pressure diagnostics to analyze and design the fluid diversion cycles of fracturing operations. The real-time, continuous-flow pressure diagnostics are injection rate step cycles that may include open low injection rate step cycles, propped low injection rate step cycles, diverted low injection rate cycles, and high injection rate cycles.
