Patent attributes
A method of fracturing a wellbore formation that includes positioning an end of a coiled tubing string adjacent a first location within a wellbore, pumping fluid down the wellbore to fracture the formation, and monitoring a pressure within the wellbore during the procedure with at least one sensor connected to a communication line. The fracturing procedure may be a re-fracturing of the wellbore. The method may include actuating a single isolation element or two isolation elements to isolate a portion of the wellbore to be fractured. The method may include modifying the fracturing procedure in real time based on data from monitoring the pressure during the procedure. A system for fracturing a wellbore includes coiled tubing, a communication line within the coiled tubing, and at least one pressure sensor connected to the communication line. Pressure sensors may be connected to both the exterior and interior of the coiled tubing.
