Completion Solutions Inc. Simple Designs That Simply Work! Company Introduction Dec 2012 1
Who is Completions Solutions Inc? Founded in 2012 Focused on efficient and economical well bore stimulation (both Open and Cased Hole) Owner is Paul Lee, founder and developer of the PBL sub. Senior leadership all with 25 plus years of industry experience in both drilling and completions
The World Today (Well at least in North America which currently accounts for > than 80 of stimulations world wide) 60 to 70% of Wells are Horizontal 50 to 60% Stimulated with Multistage Fracturing Cost are always an Issue! Growing requirement to be Environmentally sensitive.
Pros and Cons: Open Hole Packers Pros Speed of Use Typically Open Hole provides better inflow Lower Breakdown pressures Proven in Canada Cons Limited to 1/16 Ball Increments (~40 stages) Excess Fluid Required to Land Balls and Clean Liner Balls and Ball Seats May Need to be drilled out (Extra fluid on zone, coil rental) High Cost for equipment Require Dedicated Reamer Run Limited Rubber Volume Installed with Drilling Rig (expensive and slow to pick up) Pressure Drop On Ball Seats No Stage Flexibility once installed Require a full liner and liner hanger 4
Pros and Cons: Cement Plug and Perf Pros Simple Liner installation with cement Unlimited number of stages Forgiving Flexibility on Fracture / Perf location after install Cons Coil tubing required on first stage Excess Fluid to pump Perf guns and Bridge Plugs Composite Bridge Plugs need to be drilled out. (Extra Water on Zone) Quality of Cement in Horizontal? Lots of Trips Slow Limited Entry due to time (how well does this work?) Sealing Potential Producing Formation behind cement and casing 5
Pros and Cons: Cement with Shifting Sleeves and Pros Simple Liner installation Unlimited number of stages Able to use Hydra Jetting to create additional stages Currently one of the Lowest Cost Solution Abrasive Jetting Cons Require Coil Tubing on site Requires predetermined planning on location of Shifting Sleeves Hydra Jetting results in additional fluid on zone Coil Depth and Stimulation rates constrained Requires cemented in liner(?) Complex system Fast(est) Grown Segment in Western Canada? 6
Pros and Cons: Inflates Pros True open hole don t need liner Flexible stage location Unlimited number of stages Flexibility for future well development / intervention Cons Pressure Limitation on Rubber Rubber Elements break and cause hole sticking issues Limited flexibility on stage spacing Control line issues Max flow rate issues 7
What Do the Operators Want? Lower Cost per stage (Price of Oil / Gas ) Higher Stage Count (25 40 stages) More Focused Fracs(Not as Large) Less Water Usage (Both overall usage and into formation) Efficient Fracture Stimulations 20+ in 12 hours Repeatability / Operational Performance Well Bore with Options in the Future (Re-Frac, Water Injections, Water Shut Off, Others?) Overall: Better Wells at a Lower Cost with more options down the road!
Open Hole vs. Cement Liner? Both Proven to work in Western Canada How to Decide? Client Experience Formation Optimization and Response Economics Time Future Well bore plans?

With Service Rig or Coil Tubing Unit pick up UltraFX BHA and RIH to Stimulation Depth
UltraFX Packers Activated and Stimulation Performed Begin Pumping Pressure Drop across Nozzle Stim Sub activates Pressure Packer System (PPS) creating stimulation Chamber Stimulation is Performed
UltraFX Packers Activated and Stimulation Performed Stop Pumping Removal of Pressure Drop across Nozzle Stim Sub de-activates Pressure Packer System (PPS) BHA is moved to next stimulation depth
Sample Stimulation Less than 20minutes between stimulation 5 m 3 of Acid placed
UltraFX Screen Out in During Stimulation Stop Pumping Reduction in pressure will de-activate packers Pull on Tubing will Open Circulation Sub Pumping can either occur down the drill string or reverse circulate down the annulus to clean out screen out
UltraFX Screen Out in During Stimulation Stop Pumping Reduction in pressure will de-activate packers Pull on Tubing will Open Circulation Sub Pumping can either occur down the drill string or reverse circulate down the annulus to clean out screen out
Hole Conditioning before running equipment: Piston Bully The Piston Bully is Hydro- Mechanically activated by dropping a Steel Activation Ball / Dart Once the ball is seated the tool is pressured up Brass parting pins are sheared Inner Mandrel moves down Allowing Fluid to fill the piston chamber Forcing the PDC Cutter Pistons out with Pressure Drop across the tool
UltraFXCH Cased Hole Multi-Stage Fracturing When Cement and Casing is Required.. 26
UltraFXCased Hole Overview Perforate and stimulate cased wellbores on same trip. Two Main Application: Able to stimulate down backside of tubing / coil Able to isolate single perforation and stimulate down tubing / coil. Able to anchor in open casing
UltraFXCased Hole Operates 100% with hydraulic pressure No tubing movement required to cut casing No Explosives / Perforation Damage Surface Pressure Indication of downhole cut Resets downhole after each cut Up to 40 cuts (safely) on a single trip Conserves fluids as opposed to Abrasivejetting techniques
UltraFXCased Hole Open Hole Packer Liner: Run blank pipe in between packers. Cut and annular fracmultiple stages on a single run with coil tubing. Replaces: Ball & Seats, Sliding Sleeves and Abrasive-jetting Cemented Liner: Cut and annular fracmultiple stages on a single run with coil tubing. Replaces: Abrasive Jetting Technology. Cemented Liner (Perforated): PPT tool can be run without cups or packer to replace conventional perforating prior to selective straddle frac. Can be run on 1.5 or 1.75 coil tubing. Replaces: e-coil, Time Delay and T.C.P. Plug & Perf(Coil Tubing): PPT can be run in conjunction with hydraulic setting tool. Replaces: e-coil, Time Delay, all explosives.

A Case for Efficiencies 4 Stages per Hour: 45 Stage in <14 Hours Pumping Time Opportunity: Reduce the overall completions cost and increase the well productivity by stimulating the entire length of the horizontal lateral Area: Central Alberta Formation: Banff Stimulation: 15% HCL 5m 3 per stage Rate: 3.36 m 3 /min Challenge: Low Bottom Hole Pressures (15.8MPa) and 156mm Open Hole Result: Utilizing the UltraFXOpen Hole Stimulation system the operator was able to complete his well in record time will keeping his overall completions cost to less than $1 million dollars. One trip and five Pressure Packers System was able to isolate 45 stages. Down hole pressure data confirms diversion on every stage. Well Productivity: Well ranked number 6 for Top IP wells brought on throughout October 2012. 1,126 boe/d on 168 hours with 24% Gas. As reported by AltaCorp Capital Inc.
A Case for Economics 14 Stages < $50,000 for Isolation Opportunity: Reduce the overall completions cost and increase the well productivity by stimulating the entire length of the horizontal lateral Area: South Eastern Saskatchewan Formation: Midale Stimulation: 15% HCL 5m 3 per stage Rate: 2.6 m3/min Challenge: Re-entry previously attempted stimulated with inflates diversion Result: Utilizing the UltraFXOpen Hole Stimulation system the operator was able to complete his well in record time and the lowest possible cost. No cement, no casing and no coil tubing reduced over-all costs allowing 20 stage to be stimulated in less than 12 hours of pumping time while using a service rig.
