Real-Time Diverter Diagnostics and Distribution

A method comprising:

• measuring, by a processor, an onset of diversion pressure response (DPR) waveform using a pressure sensor during or after pumping diverter into a wellbore;
• determining, by the processor, that near wellbore bridging or far field bridging has taken place in a wellbore based on a time delay of pressure response or displacement volume determined from the onset of DPR waveform;
• and
• outputting, by the processor, an indication that near wellbore bridging or far field bridging has taken place in the wellbore as a result of pumping the diverter into the wellbore.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium that includes instructions that are executable by a processor for causing the processor to perform operations related to applying diverter to a hydrocarbon well, the operations comprising:

• measuring an onset of diversion pressure response (DPR) waveform using a pressure sensor during or after pumping diverter into a wellbore;
• determining that near wellbore bridging or far field bridging has taken place in a wellbore based on a time delay of pressure response or displacement volume determined from the onset of DPR waveform;
• and
• outputting an indication that near wellbore bridging or far field bridging has taken place in the wellbore as a result of pumping the diverter into the wellbore.
