Utah FORGE: Record of Frac Hits on Well 16B(78)-32 During Stimulation of Well 16A(78)-32 - April 2024
This dataset documents frac hit observations recorded in well 16B(78)-32 during hydraulic stimulation of well 16A(78)-32 in April 2024 at the Utah FORGE site. The spreadsheet provides a chronological record of identified frac hits, including an event label, measured depth in feet (MD, referenced to Kelly Bushing), arrival time, and the possible corresponding stage number on well 16A(78)-32 based on frac timing.
