Description

Abstract:
RPSEA is conducting a research experiment on hydraulic fracturing in the Marcellus shale with a consortium of researchers led by Gas Technology Institute.   The well wells are Marcellus shale wells drilled by Range Resources.
 
The presentation will review the drilling and completion of 7 horizontal wells from a single pad and then fracture treated with approximately 100 treatments.  Downhole microseismic, surface seismic, geologic research and other information regarding the project will be discussed.
 
Additionally, RPSEA has an ongoing research portfolio of over 30 projects addressing unconventional gas.  An overview of those projects addressing well completion and hydraulic fracturing will be provide.
