OSTI ID:7322773
The Phase I work involved hydraulic fracturing of two gas-bearing sandstone strata in the depth interval between 10,950 feet and 11,190 feet in the Pinedale Unit No. 5 well. The experiment involved simultaneous fracturing and propping of the two strata to a distance of about 1,000 feet employing the limited entry technique. Approximately 183,000 gallons of fluid and 518,000 pounds of sand were used in this treatment. The various steps in the performance of the experiment are described and data obtained under headings descriptive of the chronological order of field activities are presented.
