MFrac Suite

MiVu™ is a software package designed to perform microseismic monitoring during hydraulic fracturing for both downhole geophone arrays and surface geophone arrays. MiVu™ offers capabilities for building simple and complex geologic models interactively, designing optimal microseismic monitoring geometry, processing data with user-defined workflows, imaging event locations with multiple techniques, visualizing and interpreting microseismic events in 3D. Multiple event location techniques are offered such as 3D grid search, 3D migration, and cross double difference to provide insight on how different geophysical methodologies effect the location of the microseismic event. Understanding the strength and weakness of each methodology will provide a better understanding of the accuracy of the event.

DEPRO is a comprehensive torque, drag, and hydraulics program. Using this software, users can reduce many of the risks encountered in drilling and completion operations. DEPRO predicts the limits in the length of a horizontal well based on specific friction factors, recommends rig specifications, and evaluates the required weight to set a packer. For hydraulics, DEPRO covers downhole circulating pressures, surge and swab, equivalent circulation densities (ECD), bit optimization, hole cleaning, and volumetric displacements. Using DEPRO, downhole drilling hydraulic conditions can be fully examined and any potential problems can be identified prior to field execution. Torque, drag, and stress calculation. Soft and stiff string models. Drilling, back reaming, rotation off the bottom, tripping in and tripping out operations. Sinusoidal and helical buckling prediction. Field data comparison on workload and surface torque. Friction factor sensitivity analysis. Packer setting analysis.
