EP 15 · Forecasting Production Loss for Delayed Secondary Bench Development in the Midland Basin
from The Novi AI Roundup · host Novi Labs
What happens when you delay development of the second bench? In this episode of The Novi AI Roundup, we explore the production impacts of postponing secondary bench wells in the Midland Basin. Drawing from the technical paper “Forecasting Production Loss for Delayed Secondary Bench Development in the Midland Basin”, we show how machine learning isolates the effects of timing, revealing that delays can reduce child well performance by as much as 40%. From Wolfcamp to Lower Spraberry, this episode unpacks how timing, pressure, and depletion combine to reshape development outcomes.This podcast episode is based on the technical paper “Forecasting Production Loss for Delayed Secondary Bench Development in the Midland Basin”, authors: A.
