Leading Technology for Unconventional Oil and Gas Stimulation
Executive Summary
1. HEP Technology Overview
HEP effectively suspends and distributes proppant within a fiber-stabilized network to enhance fracture conductivity and proppant support efficiency. US Patent 12,371,608
1. Key Technical Advantages
30% increase in proppant carry distance (lab verified)
2 times higher proppant placement height (lab verified)
25% larger stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) (validated by microseismic monitoring)
50% reduction in proppant flowback
1. Business Impact
+18% EUR (≈ 0.11MM bbl per well, based on 0.6MM bbl EUR)
+$7MM revenue per well at $65/bbl
–8% fluid & proppant use, saving ≈ $0.2MM per well
1. Field Application in China
Successfully deployed in 250+ wells across Chinese oilfields over the past 3 years.

Problems With
Leading Technology for Unconventional Oil and Gas Stimulation
Conventional Proppants
Insufficient Vertical Support: lower placement height;
Insufficient Horizontal Support: the proppant fails to travel far;
Sand flow back into the wellbore seriously: clog and damage the production equipment;
Comparison between dynamic fractures and support fractures in shale oil (Jonathan, SPE169496)
Flowback induced clogging

Leading Technology for Unconventional Oil and Gas Stimulation
Platform Z201H62
Geological Conditions
4 wells on the platform, vertical depth 3550-3611m: Wells 1&4 with HEP; Well 2&3 with self-suspending proppant.
Geologically similar : Pay zone encounter rate, porosity, brittle mineral content and rock mechanics parameters are roughly equivalent; TOC of Wells 1&4 is poorer than 2&3; Well 4 has slightly longer encounter length.
