Abstract
In one aspect, a method of optimizing a sequenced hydraulic fracturing treatment to be performed on a well includes predicting, based on a well model of the well and a hydraulic fracturing treatment schedule, a seal state of a perforation cluster. The method may further include updating, based on the predicted seal state, a pilling operation of a stage of the hydraulic fracturing treatment schedule. The method may further include modifying the sequenced hydraulic fracturing treatment schedule to be performed based on the updated pilling operation. The well model includes a geomechanical model of the well and a geological formation.
