The Observatorio Vulcanológico y Sismológico de Costa Rica-Universidad Nacional (OVSICORI-UNA) reported continuous gas-and-steam emissions, ash-and-gas emissions sometimes lasting hours, and explosions at Poás during 30 April-6 May. Inflation continued to be detected. Seismic and infrasound sensors recorded seismic-acoustic signals indicating fluctuating eruptive activity with frequent more intense eruptive pulses.
The webcams recorded the emissions and incandescence at the vents.

During 29-30 April ash-and-gas plumes rose a few hundred meters above the crater rim and drifted SW, causing significant ashfall in the Sarchi area (18 km SW). The density of the ash content was higher in the morning and early afternoon on 30 April. Around 0300 on 1 May a team conducted a drone overflight and measured a temperature of 180 degrees Celsius, indicating no lava near the surface.

A more intense eruptive pulse at 0315 sent ash-and-gas 500

Well completions per location more than double in Lower 48 states as technology advances

In-brief analysis

May 7, 2025

Data source: FracFocus
Note: To calculate the number of wells completed per location, we grouped wells within a 50-foot radius into single locations. We then identified wells completed by their completion start and end dates, counting concurrent completions when their completion periods overlapped.

We estimate that the average number of wells completed simultaneously at the same location in the Lower 48 states has more than doubled, increasing from 1.5 wells in December 2014 to more than 3.0 wells in June 2024. By completing multiple wells at once rather than sequentially, operators can accelerate their production timeline and reduce their cost per well. The increasing number of simultaneous completions reflects significant technological advances in hydraulic fracturing operations, particularly in equipment capabilities and operational strategies.

Using data from FracFocus to estimate simultaneous
