ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 17 -- United States Patent no. 12,312,927, issued on May 27.
"Fracking efficiency evaluation system and method(s) of use" was invented by Wen Wang (Houston), Joseph Mjehovich (Denver) and Ge Jin (Houston).
According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A fracking efficiency evaluation system and method of use of the system can be implemented to generate a completion design plan based on quantitative analysis of fracture widths. The fracture widths can be implemented to create a frac unevenness parameter, a fracture surface area parameter, and a leakage volume estimation parameter. One or more of the parameters can be used to generate the completion design plan for optimizing performance o...
