Frac Stage Optimizer

Compare up to 3 completion scenarios side by side. Optimize stage count, cluster spacing, proppant loading, and cost.

Cost Comparison

How this works

Stages: Total stages = Lateral Length / Stage Length (rounded down).

Cluster Spacing: Stage Length / Clusters per Stage.

Total Proppant: Proppant per Stage x Number of Stages.

Total Cost: Sum of proppant cost + pump cost + perf/plug cost across all stages.

Proppant Intensity: Total proppant (lbs) / Lateral Length (ft) - a key metric for completion efficiency.
