RTA/PTA in a Shut-In Environment

Testing Opportunities with High ROI

In a two-part panel discussion, industry experts will unpack the silver-lining opportunities created by the race to shut-in production. Widespread build-up data can be acquired at low cost and leveraged to improve future operational and development decisions. Simple Pressure and Rate Transient Analysis techniques offer a practical way to improve our understanding of wells and unconventional reservoirs. An impressive cast of consultants and operators from the SPE community will share their thoughts and experience on a series of organized, objectives-based topics. We are proud to have our webinars moderated by SPE’s very own Trent Jacobs, who will surely put our experts on the hot seat with his, and your, burning questions.
