Fracwave

Abstract A breakthrough methodology has been developed that combines continuous wavelet transform (CWT) signal processing with deep learning to predict microseismic events during hydraulic fracturing operations. This innovative approach transforms treating pressure …

Hydraulic fracturing has long relied on microseismic monitoring, tracers, and fiber optics to infer fracture geometry and complexity. Yet every stage of every well already contains a widely overlooked signal: the pressure …

The Fracwave Research Group at the University of Houston has developed a new stimulation technology that is now field-ready for deployment. Known as Nanoparticle-Enhanced Plasma Pulse Stimulation (PPPS), this electrified method combines …

We are excited to announce that our team, Fracwave from the University of Houston, together with collaborators from VERTEX group at the Colorado School of Mines, will present three breakthrough studies at …
