Stimulation

With completion header information already imported or entered, stage-level stimulation data can then be imported or entered. You cannot have duplicate stage numbers. After you enter or import the stimulation data, you can then enter or import the Stimulation Materials.

Required fields for stimulation data include Stage, Start Depth, and End Depth.

The Stimulation data card has two tabs:

Treatment	The Treatment tab includes 28 columns for information about plugback depth, pressure tests, injection rates, hydraulic power, and proppant.
Fluid	The Fluid tab includes 16 columns in addition to the 3 required fields and contains information about the pumped fluids, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen.

See the Stimulation Glossary for a definition of each term.

To manually enter Stimulation data, click Insert to add a row, and then enter (or select) a value for each field. If the value you enter is not valid, the cell is outlined in red. A tooltip explains the error. For general editing rules and tips, see Entering and editing data. For more information on importing stimulation data by file see Importing Data.
