Limited entry perforating has been around for over 50 years; however, its effectiveness has been limited in the horizontal revolution due to insufficient perforation friction relative to the variability in stress and near-wellbore tortuosity within a stage. It has been shown that the published trends correlating stage count to early life productivity throughout the shale …

An immiscible hydrocarbon foam (HC-Foam) enhanced oil recovery (EOR) pilot has been designed and implemented in a hydraulically fractured tight reservoir in the Woodbine field, Texas in partnership between MDAE and Dow. A single horizontal injector and two surrounding horizontal producers pad was developed for an IOR/EOR pilot. Water and produced hydrocarbon gases were injected …
