Abstract:
A method may include receiving a set of inputs for operation of at least one electric hydraulic fracturing rig and at least one mechanical hydraulic fracturing rig of a hydraulic fracturing system. The method may further include optimizing operation of the at least one electric hydraulic fracturing rig and the at least one mechanical hydraulic fracturing rig based on at least the set of inputs. The method may further include iterating the optimization using a cost function for an operation mode of the hydraulic fracturing system.
