While the public is generally aware of the use of hydraulic
fracturing for unconventional resource development onshore, it is
less familiar with the well completion and stimulation technologies
used in offshore operations, including hydraulic fracturing, gravel
packs, "fracpacks," and acid stimulation. Just as onshore
technologies have improved, these well completion and stimulation
technologies for offshore hydrocarbon resource development have
progressed over many decades. To increase public understanding of
these technologies, the National Academies of Sciences,
Engineering, and Medicine established a planning committee to
organize and convene a workshop on Offshore Well Completion and
Stimulation: Using Hydraulic Fracturing and Other Technologies on
October 2-3, 2017, in Washington, DC. This workshop examined the
unique features about operating in the U.S. offshore environment,
including well completion and stimulation technologies,
environmental considerations and concerns, and health and safety
management. Participants from across government, industry,
academia, and nonprofit sectors shared their perspectives on
operational and regulatory approaches to mitigating risks to the
environment and to humans in the development of offshore resources.
This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from
the workshop. Table of Contents Front Matter 1 Introduction 2
