qWave - PulseFrac Tool
The PulseFrac Tool leverages qWave's innovative technology designed predominantly for Micro-Frac Wireline operations. This advanced tool integrates a pulse generator module capable of generating voltages up to 30,000 volts. When voltage is released within a specialized reflector module, it produces highly focused shockwaves targeted strategically at the formation rock. These shockwaves initiate the formation fractures essential for effectively propagating hydraulic frac pressure, thus reducing the initial formation breakdown pressure. It facilitates easier achievement of microfractures even in challenging conditions. Additionally, the tool features a slow bleed-off system, crucial for determining fracture closure pressure in tight or impermeable formations. The core technology, based on focused acoustic shockwave generation similar to medical applications for kidney stone treatment, thus proves versatile and powerful in field application.
