Hydraulic fracturing modelling and control

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• at least one computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
• applying a fracturing completion model to identify a plurality of possible fracturing completion plans for completing one or more wellbores at a target completion, wherein the plurality of possible fracturing completion plans include varying values of either or both fracturing completion parameters and reservoir parameters;
• gathering completion characteristic data of the one or more wellbores in response to application of at least a portion of a fracturing completion plan of the possible fracturing completion plans in completing the one or more wellbores;
• determining whether to apply a different fracturing completion plan of the possible fracturing completion plans by applying a completion plan selection model based on the completion characteristics data;
• and
• facilitating switching to the different fracturing completion plan in completing the one or more wellbores if it is determined to apply the different fracturing completion plan.
