压裂液实时监控提高作业效率

Tally Energy Services has acquired Austin-based ReStream Solutions. ReStream’s latest commercialized technology, FracStream, is a hardware-software service that seamlessly integrates into existing hydraulic fracturing operations to provide real-time, unmanned, frac fluid characterization.

ReStream’s technology monitors, analyzes, and reports on-site frac fluid chemistry, rheology, and physical parameters into and out of the blender. It assures that the stimulation fluids are delivered as designed through every stage, enabling pressure pumpers to manage the challenges of variable water quality and chemical interactions across the whole pad. FracStream immediately identifies unexpected changes in the fluid system, such as friction reducer efficacy, total dissolved solids, and pH, and actively notifies clients in real-time. It replaces manual, periodic fluid sampling of a narrow set of parameters with an automated, continuous stream of high-quality, redundantly sampled, complete fluid system characterization. FracStream’s real-time fluid characterization is delivered onsite to the datavan and remote command centers enabling proactive management of the stimulation job and accurate downhole net-pressure analyses. FracStream has demonstrated increased pressure pumping productivity through reduced personnel costs, non-productive time, as well as optimized chemical dosing.

“Since 2016, ReStream Solutions has developed innovative and creative solutions for exploration and production operations. Our latest technology, FracStream, gets people off the well site, benefiting operational safety and driving cost savings for frac companies and guarantees E&P companies their frac fluid make-up is as intended,” Billy Roberts, Founder and President of ReStream, said. “Joining Tally allows us to enhance our capabilities and create new offerings by integrating our technology into other organizations in the Tally family.”

“Tally Energy Services’ mission is to make better wells by focusing on areas most profoundly affecting success: wellbore placement, effective stimulation, and production optimization,” Chris Dorros, CEO of Tally Energy Services, said. “ReStream’s technologies and offerings bring a unique service in completions and establishes a digital platform for our overall strategy. We are excited to partner with their team and welcome them to the Tally family.”

FracStream

During pressure pumping operations the FracStream system analyzes both on-site fluid chemistry, rheology, and pressure pumping equipment data to characterize the real-time status of the process fluids/operations and make real-time recommendations to the authorized parties that enables on-the-fly adjustment to controls in order to achieve targeted fluid specifications and minimize pass-through costs associated with non-productive time (“NPT”) for the connected pressure pumping equipment.

By collecting and displaying fluid chemistry and dynamics information in real-time, FracStream allows our clients to achieve reliable frac fluid chemistries and effective proppant carrying capacities on-site — while eliminating several inefficient and antiquated pressure pumper cost centers, including such large line items such as fluid density related screenouts. Additionally, this functionality allows our clients to reliably reduce their inherent risks associated with utilizing higher percentages of co-mingled fluid sources (i.e., recycled produced water streams/blends) by definitively ensuring the desired metrics are attained, irrespective of the source water quality.

• Real-time frac fluid chemistry and fluid dynamics analysis, pre-emptive diagnosis of deficiencies to rapidly achieve the Clients targeted frac fluid KPI’s and avoid NPT
• Real-time evaluation of fluid viscosity/proppant carrying capacity for optimization of the fluid system using appropriate amounts of polymer to reduced fluid-related screen-outs.
• Evaluation of third-party biocide application efficacy
• Evaluation of corrosion events and root cause analysis
• Real-time, multi-variant evaluation of pumping equipment performance and proactive identification of operational inefficiencies
• Pre-emptive diagnosis and alarming regarding atypical conditions on both the surface equipment and downhole to pre-emptively avoid potential fluid-related screen-outs, acid-carry-over events, etcetera.
• Retention of easily accessible, comprehensive, searchable data sets for detailed comparative analysis capabilities (i.e., Different Frac Packs, Different Operational Approaches, Different Pressure Pumping Operating Units/Crews, etcetera.)
• Reliable utilization of higher percentages of Client(s) specified co-mingled recycled produced water blends
