ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to systems and methods useful in subterranean treatment operations. Examples of methods of the present invention include methods for fracturing a portion of a subterranean formation penetrated by a well bore; methods of enhancing production from multiple subterranean formations penetrated by a well bore during a single trip through the well bore; and methods of enhancing production, in real time, from multiple subterranean formations penetrated by a well bore during a single trip through the well bore.
