XMAC F1 service provided deep shear wave imaging for unconventional reservoirs
XMAC F1 service provided deep shear wave imaging for unconventional reservoirs Challenges • Haynesville unconventional reservoir with high variability in field production where vertical wells were out- producing horizontal wells • Low permeability shale known to contain natural gas Results • Detected large, non- intersecting fractures located 30 ft away from borehole • Revealed natural fractures within the formation that did not intersect the borehole • Determined fracture strike direction • Integrated with existing acoustic fracture analysis without additional logging • Provided insight of the fracture system for enhanced field and reservoir development An operator with an unconventional reservoir in the Haynesville Shale wanted help with developing a hydraulic stimulati
