The Key Factors That Determine the Economically Viable, Horizontal Hydrofractured Gas Wells in Mudrocks

We assemble a multiscale physical model of gas production in a mudrock (shale). We then tested our model on 45 horizontal gas wells in the Barnett with 12–15 years on production. When properly used, our model may enable shale companies to gain operational insights into how to complete a particular w...
