Abstract:
Techniques for determining geometries of hydraulic fractures include identifying a data structure that includes data associated with hydraulic fracture identifiers and observed fluid pressures, at least one of the hydraulic fracture identifiers representing a first hydraulic fracture formed from a monitor wellbore into a subsurface rock formation and at least another of the hydraulic fracture identifiers representing a second hydraulic fracture formed from a treatment wellbore into the subsurface rock formation, at least one of the observed fluid pressures includes a pressure change in a fluid in the first hydraulic fracture that is induced by formation of the second hydraulic fracture; performing a single- or multi-objective, non-linear constrained optimization analysis to minimize at least one objective function associated with the observed fluid pressures; and based on minimizing the at least one objective function, determining respective sets of hydraulic fracture geometries associated with at least one of the first hydraulic fracture or the second hydraulic fracture.

Claim (Index 1):
A structured data processing system for determining geometries of hydraulic fractures, the system comprising:\n one or more hardware processors; a memory in communication with the one or more hardware processors, the memory storing a data structure and an execution environment, the data structure storing data that comprises a plurality of hydraulic fracture identifiers and a plurality of observed poromechanically induced fluid pressures, at least one of the plurality of hydraulic fracture identifiers associated with a first hydraulic fracture formed from a monitor wellbore that extends from a terranean surface into a subsurface rock formation and at least another of the plurality of hydraulic fracture identifiers associated with a second hydraulic fracture formed from a treatment wellbore that extends from the terranean surface into the subsurface rock formation, at least one of the plurality of observed poromechanically induced fluid pressures comprising a pressure change in a fluid in the first hydraulic fracture that is induced by formation of the second hydraulic fracture, the execution environment comprising:\n a hydraulic fracture geometry solver configured to perform operations comprising:\n (i) executing a single- or multi-objective, non-linear constrained optimization analysis to minimize at least one objective function associated with the plurality of observed poromechanically induced fluid pressures, and \n (ii) based on minimizing the at least one objective function, determining respective sets of hydraulic fracture geometries associated with at least one of the first hydraulic fracture or the second hydraulic fracture; \n \n a user interface module that generates a user interface that renders one or more graphical representations of the determined respective sets of hydraulic fracture geometries; and \n a transmission module that transmits, over one or more communication protocols and to a computing device, data that represents the one or more graphical representations.
