Young’s Modulus

May 19, 2020

Fracking is not just about breaking rocks. It is also about pushing rock out of the way! How easy that is depends, amongst others, on the stiffness of the rock – or what we call the Young’s Modulus.

Diversion Strategies

April 30, 2020

Diversion strategies during the frac can help maximize the number of perforation clusters that effectively take frac fluid and proppant, thus ensuring that these clusters contribute to long-term production of a horizontal well. Top Nerd Leen Weijers discusses Liberty’s data-driven strategy and Lab Rat Joel Siegel reviews Liberty’s range of products that can help ensure…
