Pinnacle
Technologies Fracture Diagnostics for Mapping Hydraulic
Fractures
Pinnacle Technologies Inc., a partner with the
Gas Technology Institute (GTI), and Petro-Canada
invite you to participate in
a Technology Information Session. This session will present an
overview of hydraulic fracturing diagnostics including: surface tiltmeter
fracture mapping, downhole tiltmeter fracture mapping, and microseismic
fracture mapping.

Background
After
nearly a decade of mapping hydraulic fracture geometry, we are still often
humbled by fracture complexity and the lack of dimensional correlation to
fracture models in many areas. The ability to incorporate measured
fracture dimensions along with net pressure matching and other data
remains the industry ideal so that a 3-D model can be calibrated which
accurately predicts fracture geometry resulting from a specific
treatment. Pinnacle Technologies maps fracture geometry on more than
1500 fracs per year in many different reservoirs and will describe the
technologies available to map hydraulic fractures using real-world cases
where fracture diagnostics have been incorporated with net pressure and
other data to develop calibrated fracture models and optimize fracturing projects.
Session Description
This
session will cover Pinnacle’s award-winning suite of direct diagnostics
includes: surface tiltmeter fracture mapping, downhole tiltmeter fracture
mapping, microseismic fracture mapping and PermPT Coal Bed Methane
Testing. Both microseismic and tiltmeter mapping can be performed in
real-time to facilitate on-site treatment optimization. Pinnacle's
diagnostic tools have been employed to monitor propped and unpropped
fracture treatments in vertical and horizontal wells, secondary and
enhanced oil recovery processes, subsurface waste disposal and
geotechnical monitoring.
