Stimplan 8

Description

Stimplan 8

StimPlan™ is a complete and integrated software solution for hydraulic fracture design, analysis, and optimization. With a comprehensive integrated toolkit and the industry’s most rigorous geometry models, StimPlan™ helps operators worldwide maximize their well performance while lowering expenditure and reducing their environmental footprint, however complex their reservoir or fracture treatment design.

Post-frac benchmarking studies show that rigorous hydraulic stimulation design and treatment optimization helps both reduce operational problems and significantly improve well performance. Through optimizing the hydraulic fracture treatment, StimPlan™ helps operators not only increase production but also drive down well costs through savings in proppant, pumping, and water disposal.

With an ever-increasing emphasis on minimizing the environmental impact of oil and gas exploitation, StimPlan™ also helps ensure environmentally responsible hydraulic fracture operations.
