WELCOME!
This is the Hydraulic Fracturing Technical Section of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE).
This technical section encompasses the subject of hydraulic fracturing technology through online events, online networking, workshops, conferences, and by promoting diversity in the industry. The purpose of this section shall be to provide a forum from which technical professionals and academia can:
  • Share knowledge, experience, and best practices
  • Identify major issues and technology areas on which to focus cooperation and discussions
  • Maintain and promote industry awareness of related issues and technologies
  • Enhance their own technical competencies that meet the needs of the petroleum industry
We will accomplish our mission through the transfer of knowledge at study groups, monthly meetings, forums, and workshops.

Title of talk: Shale & Tight Perforation Design Optimization – A Journey to Improve Cluster Efficiency
Abstract
Improving cluster efficiency is critical for economic and efficient multi-cluster per stage fracturing in unconventional horizontal well completion. This presentation will highlight the findings from a field trial to test different perforation design variables which contribute to cluster efficiency. The goal was to optimize perforation design parameters and improve cluster efficiency for a given stage, and thus the well in its entirety.

SPE HyFTS OUTSTANDING GRADUATE STUDENT AWARD 2023

Congratulations to Ashtiwi Bahri, Colorado School of Mines, Jiayue Chen, Texas A&M University, and Jhon Uribe-Patino, University of Alberta.

Three students will be recognized by the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technical Section (HyFTS) with an Outstanding Graduate Student Award for graduate students pursuing research in hydraulic fracturing related areas: 
 - Ashtiwi Bahri, Colorado School of Mines 
 - Jiayue Chen, Texas A&M University 
 - Jhon Uribe-Patino, University of Alberta
The students were selected for this award based on their respective resume, recommendation letter and summary of their technical contribution, that may have resulted in a conference presentation and/or a journal publication related to Hydraulic
Fracturing, which may encompass topics related to state-of-the-art and future needs. 
Recipients also must be an SPE member in good standing and a member of the SPE HyFTS. Recipients may only be recognized once with this award. Award certificates will be presented to the students at the SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference and Exhibition scheduled for 6-8 February 2024 in The Woodlands, TX.  Each student will also receive $500.
