Abstract

This paper discusses how microfracture testing is providing operators with data for optimizing fracture treatments and determining the placement of wells. This type of testing has increased during the last 5 years because operators can obtain actual stress magnitudes in various zones and the fracture azimuth direction. Entire multiple-well programs have been planned around this testing.
