Abstract

This dataset consists of a comprehensive report documenting the stimulation program conducted in May 2024 on Utah FORGE wells 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32. It includes detailed accounts of operational and scientific objectives, stimulation methodologies, and testing outcomes. The report describes the hydraulic fracturing activities, equipment setups, proppant and fluid usage, and the execution of a nine-hour circulation test. It also includes observations from seismic and fiber optic monitoring systems, providing data on microseismic activity and fracture propagation. Detailed parameters for each stimulation stage are provided, alongside operational challenges and solutions. The dataset includes analyses of injection and production rates, well temperatures, and pressure data, supported by graphical illustrations and logs.

Utah FORGE: Well 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32 Stimulation Production Logging Tests

Dataset Haroun, Fanny

These are production logging tests (PLT) results from Halliburton collected during the nine hour circulation test performed at Utah FORGE on April 27th, 2024. The circulation test involved injecting into well 16A(78)-32 and producing out of well 16B(78)-32) and was carried out after the fracturing of both of those wells. Data attached here includes raw and processed PLT logs from both wells, as well as technical reports summarizing the data collection and results.

Dataset England, Kevin

This dataset consists of all of the pressure pumping data for Utah FORGE Well16A78-32 fracturing stages, Well 16B78-32 fracturing stages, and a 9-hour circulation test which took place after all of the frac plugs were drilled out. Fracturing in the wells took place in stages from April 3rd to April 17th, while the circulation test occurred on April 27th, 2024. Data is in excel files, with ReadMe files for each of the .zip folders that detail what data is available. Also attached here is wellhead pressure data from Pason that is referred to in the ReadMe files.
Utah FORGE: GES Well 16A(78)-32 and Well 16B(78)-32 Stimulation Seismic Event Catalogs

Dataset Dyer, Ben ; Karvounis, Dimitrios ; Meier, Peter ; ...

This dataset contains seismic event catalogs from the hydraulic stimulation of wells 16A(78)-32 and 16B(78)-32 at the Utah FORGE site in April 2024. The data was collected by Geo Energy Suisse (GES) using a variety of seismic monitoring technologies, including 3-component (3C) geophones and distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) systems. These technologies were deployed across several locations, including wells 16A, 16B, and Delano-1, with sensor arrays at multiple depths to capture microseismic activity during the stimulations. The catalogs provide both real-time and manually checked seismic event locations, with detailed parameters such as trigger conditions, velocity models, and data acquisition settings. Themore »« less

Dataset Guo, Quan ; Oliver, John ; Shokanov, Talgat

This dataset includes results and supporting documentation from tracer tests conducted in 2024 at Utah FORGE. The tests involved injecting nanoparticle tracers into injection well 16A(78)-32 and monitoring their recovery in production well 16B(78)-32 to assess hydraulic connectivity, flow pathways, and fracture network behavior. This dataset covers tracer injections during stimulation tests in April 2024 and extended circulation tests in August and September 2024, with data on flow contributions and inter-well connectivity. Provided here is the time series tracer data with visualizations for these tests.
