Channel Fracturing Technology to Successfully Deploy Proppant Fracturing Stimulation Under Limited BHP Window for Completion Integrity

Study made from the results observed over a particular application objective with one of the recently developed proppant fracturing techniques known as Channel Fracturing. This technique was used in this application to place a proppant fracturing treatment in a tight gas reservoir which pushes the installed well completion to reach its mechanical limit capabilities. Channel (or pillar) fracturing was applied in multiple cases with the intention to constrain the pressure increase commonly observed during a fracture job execution.
