Abstract:
Techniques for determining a proppant-area of a hydraulic fracture include identifying a fracture fluid leak-off curve that includes time-dependent pressure signal values of a first fracturing fluid in a monitor wellbore that is in fluid communication with a first hydraulic fracture formed from the monitor wellbore. Each of the time-dependent pressure signal values is a pressure change in the first fracturing fluid induced by a second hydraulic fracture from a treatment wellbore formed by a second fracturing fluid that includes proppant. The techniques further include determining a time value corresponding to a time-dependent pressure signal value associated with proppant landing time in the second hydraulic fracture; generating a pre-closure curve that includes extrapolated time-dependent pressure signal values; determining an intersection of the fracture fluid leak-off curve and the generated at least one pre-closure curve; determining a time-dependent pressure signal value that occurs at the intersection; and determining a proppant-area dimension of the second hydraulic fracture.

Claim (Index 6):
The system of  claim 1 , wherein the proppant-area solver is configured to perform further operations comprising determining, based on the determined proppant area, an impact of at least one hydraulic fracturing operation action on the determined proppant area, the user interface module is configured to generate a user interface that renders one or more graphical representations of the at least one hydraulic fracturing operation action, and the transmission module is configured to transmit, over the one or more communication protocols and to the computing device, data that represents the one or more graphical representations of the at least one hydraulic fracturing operation action.
