About Frac Playbook

Data-driven completion cost management that puts stage-level economics at the center of every decision.

Prioritize high-performing stages

Identify and invest in stages showing strong fracture development — allocate resources where they drive the most value.

Reduce spend on underperformers

Recognize underperforming stages in real time and reduce material waste before completion costs escalate.

Standardized decision rules

Consistent, repeatable completion logic across all crews and shifts — reducing variability and improving program-level outcomes.

Real-time schedule adjustments

Adapt pump schedules based on measured stage behavior, not static pre-job designs.

What Frac Playbook Delivers

Every dollar counts in completions. Frac Playbook ensures your spend is directed where it drives the most production — stage by stage, well by well.

01

Stage-level cost optimization

Link fracture performance metrics to completion spend in real time. See which stages are delivering ROI.

02

Adaptive pump schedules

Modify stage designs on the fly based on live performance signals — shorter stages when warranted, extended when beneficial.

03

Program-level consistency

Apply the same decision framework across wells, pads, and basins. Every crew follows the same playbook.

04

Post-job performance review

Comprehensive cost-per-stage and performance analysis to continuously refine your completion design.

Case Study Outcomes
Meta study of targeted stage-level optimization (Delaware Basin)
  • $1.53MM in cost savings through reductions in time on location, fluid usage, and chemical consumption.
  • +20% uplift in 7-month production across 19 wells vs 572 offsets (5-mile radius, 2020+ vintage).
  • Lower intensities vs offsets: 43.5 bbl/ft fluid and 2300 lbs/ft proppant.

How The Playbook Works
Stage-level signals identify underperforming stages while execution is in progress. Configurable rules trigger exception-based adjustments so crews can preserve efficient designs on strong stages and reallocate resources where needed.
