FracMan 8 software, developed by Golder Associates Inc. over three decades, is an integrated solution for reservoir fracture characterization and application.
It combines multiple functionalities:
fracture modeling using Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) technology, time-varying artificial fracture propagation simulations employing finite element methods, and dynamic modeling incorporating fracture factors through numerical approaches. The system enables comprehensive data analysis, DFN model construction, fracturing dynamics simulation, SRV classification quantification, optimized fracturing design, well placement analysis, risk assessment, and production capacity evaluation.
