SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING GEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS FOR THE DESIGNING OF STIMULATION OPERATIONS

摘要

Well completion is accomplished by obtaining a sample of geological material from the subsurface and generating primary data for the sample of geological material. The primary data include textural data, chemical data and mineralogical data. The primary data are used to derive secondary data for the sample of geological material, and the primary data and the secondary data are used to generate tertiary data for the sample of geological material. The tertiary data are a quantification of physical characteristics of the sample of geological material. The primary data, secondary data and tertiary data are used to determine a location of a stage along a well and an arrangement of perforation clusters in the stage.
