In order to assess your understanding of the lesson materials, please select the most appropriate answer for each of the multiple choice questions below.
    Question 1/5

    Suppose you wanted to obtain a stabilized production rate from a single planar fracture in a 0.001 md reservoir that is identical to that of a vertical unfractured well producing from a 1 md reservoir. Both reservoirs are to have a drainage area of 160 acres. How long would the fracture have to be (from sandface to tip) to achieve this?
