Niobrara Shale Production

The Niobrara Shale Production 2021 Exhibition & Conference is the only event of its kind to deliver leading market intelligence and industry presentations on the latest in shale production opportunities for the Rocky Mountains . Welcome to the Niobrara Shale Production 2021 Exhibition and Conference where leading Exploration & Production companies will meet with service providers in Denver, Colorado to explore the next generation of new technologies and techniques to enhance shale production .. continue reading across the Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin. The Niobrara is the most significant shale formation in Colorado and remains by far the primary driver of production growth across the state with a staggering 5 billion barrels of recoverable crude oil. Operators across the region are now looking for new ways to navigate through the energy market in a post-pandemic world while focussing their efforts on cost-reduction and production optimization strategies. A shift towards horizontal drilling and multistage fracture stimulation has brought new life to this unconventional field. With geological factors of the formation being tight and heterogeneous in nature, the existence of faults, and with the light hydrocarbon content and temperature anomalies affecting gas-oil ratios, operators must adopt advanced production techniques and gather valuable information about reservoir connectivity and the fracture network between wells in the Niobrara - including the Wattenberg, Silo, and Hereford Ranch, Berthoud, and other fields particularly where they are multistage fractured.
