WELCOME!
This is the Hydraulic Fracturing Technical Section of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE).
This technical section encompasses the subject of hydraulic fracturing technology through online events, online networking, workshops, conferences, and by promoting diversity in the industry.
The purpose of this section shall be to provide a forum from which technical professionals and academia can:
  • Share knowledge, experience, and best practices
  • Identify major issues and technology areas on which to focus cooperation and discussions
  • Maintain and promote industry awareness of related issues and technologies
  • Enhance their own technical competencies that meet the needs of the petroleum industry
We will accomplish our mission through the transfer of knowledge at study groups, monthly meetings, forums, and workshops.

 

  COMING UP ON SPE LIVE MONDAY, NOVEMBER 24

     Registration link: https://streaming.spe.org/spe-live-building-expertise-together-sharing-best-practices-in-completions-2

 

The SPE Completions Advisory Committee to the Completions Technical Director (Peggy Rijken) is launching a new knowledge-sharing initiative focused on best practices across various subject areas, through a series of white papers. These papers will be authored by subject matter experts (SMEs) and will reference leading SPE publications relevant to each topic. The primary objective is to provide valuable guidance and foundational knowledge for young engineers entering the discipline.

The Hydraulic Fracturing Technical Section (HyFTS) is leading the development of the first white paper in this series, covering key topics within hydraulic fracturing. This inaugural paper will be presented at the Hydraulic Fracturing Technology Conference (HFTC) in February 2026.
