Abstract
Systems and methods of hydraulically fracturing subterranean formations include modifying a completion operation parameter for hydraulic fracturing a target well, the target well extending through a subterranean formation and a fracture extending from the target well as a result of the hydraulic fracturing. The modification to the completion operation is responsive to detection of a response of a monitor well extending through the subterranean formation, where the response of the monitor well resulting from interactions between the monitor well and the fracture extending from the target well.
