Marcellus Shale: Integrating Information to Optimize Horizontal Well Performance

AAPG Distinguished Lecture
Summary

This presentation discusses one operator’s approach to fully integrate data captured in the Marcellus Shale in order to optimize horizontal well performance. Based upon insight from the study, the operator wanted to make more informed asset management decisions, improve economics, and look for future investment opportunities. A comprehensive study was performed incorporating the data to optimize the design of a horizontal well in the Marcellus Shale. This resulted in an optimized completion strategy for the next horizontal wells, expected to make 80% more production and while reducing the overall completion cost.
