The Journey to Optimized Completions
Quantify variability in perforation efficiency, Uniformity Index, and plug performance across your existing program.
Identify economic impact of measured variability. Model NPV uplift from closing performance gaps.
Systematic testing of one variable at a time: perf orientation, hole size, cluster count, fluid system. Measure the impact of each change.
Achieve the same Uniformity Index with fewer stages or lower pump rates. Reduce cost without sacrificing performance.
Real-time intra-stage interventions: rate, viscosity, and volume reallocation based on live acoustic measurement.
Use Case
Without consistent measurement, operators cannot compare completions performance across wells, pads, or basins. Treating pressure is influenced by too many variables to serve as a reliable benchmark.
How Seismos solves it: SAFA provides consistent perforation efficiency and Uniformity Index measurements on every stage, every well. The platform aggregates data across 100,000+ analyzed stages, enabling cross-pad PE degradation comparison, basin-level trend analysis, and crew-to-crew performance evaluation.
Use Case
Perforation efficiency degrades during stages, and treating pressure alone cannot detect it. The conventional workflow discovers PE problems after the fact — by then, the damage is permanent.
How Seismos solves it: SAFA measures PE continuously at the cluster level. When PE begins to degrade, threshold-based alerts trigger corrective actions before degradation becomes irreversible. In closed-loop mode, the system automatically adjusts pump rate, fluid chemistry, or diverter placement to restore cluster balance intra-stage.
Use Case
Even well-designed completions produce variable results. Different engineers read the same treating pressure data and reach different conclusions. Shift changes compound the problem — the night crew may use different intervention thresholds than the day crew.
How Seismos solves it: Closed-loop fracturing codifies decision logic into repeatable, measurable rules. SAFA's direct measurements define clear thresholds — same conditions produce the same response, every time. The baseline logic draws on 100,000+ stages to set appropriate performance targets for the specific formation.
Use Case
Automated completions optimization from measurement to execution. Available in supervised (engineer approves each intervention) or autonomous (system executes within pre-set guardrails) modes.
