| Vertice Oil Tools on Oil and Gas Startups | 13 May 2024 | 00:32:43 | |
Vertice Oil Tools didn’t start out with frac plugs in mind—they originally set out to commercialize a sliding sleeve design. But when plug-and-perf took over the game, they pivoted and nailed it with a hydraulically disconnecting refrac liner that’s transforming how refracs are done. This tool makes zonal isolation for refracturing faster and more affordable than the old-school cut-and-pull approach. Plus, they’re not just throwing tools out there; Vertice uses data analytics to help operators find the best wells for refracs, tapping into offset data and reservoir details to predict production bumps. With refracking booming in places like Eagle Ford, Haynesville, and the Bakken, they’re even tying refracs to new fracs on multi-well pads and exploring remote frac lines to make single-well refracs more cost-effective.

| Geonote on Oil and Gas Startups | 13 Sep 2021 | 00:44:39 | |
President Lincoln once said, “If I only had an hour to chop down a tree, I would spend the first 45 minutes sharpening my axe” – meaning, preparation is everything. In an industry as complex as oil and gas, you may have to run dozens of models before you can make a decision. The problem is that models have historically taken weeks if not months and we simply might not have the time. So with limited time and data, we make an educated guess. Unfortunately, more times than not, these end up being very expensive guesses. Geonote has set out to solve this problem by enabling you to create engineering and geographic heavy models in a fraction of the time – allowing you to find the best possible path forward.
