PE Distinguished Seminar: Dr. Junjing Zhang

Virtual Event CO, United States

Mitigating Production Degradation Due to Frac Hits in Unconventional Reservoirs Register To Attend In unconventional reservoirs, a "frac hit" is the infill-to-parent well communication during hydraulic fracturing. In most shale plays, production from the parent-infill well system drops below original forecasts due to production degradation after fracture hits from offset wells. Fracturing treatments in infill […]

Physics Colloquium: “Quantum Control of Spins in Silicon”

Mark Eriksson University of Wisconsin-Madison, Department of Physics Abstract: Quantum computing is based on the manipulation of two-level quantum systems, or qubits. In most approaches to quantum computing, qubits are as much as possible isolated from their environment in order to minimize the loss of qubit phase coherence. The use of nuclear spins as qubits is a […]
