Field-Scale: Field Development Plans
Senior inter-disciplinary Omani engineers will conduct a field level studies using computer modelling and simulations to predict future performance of a reservoir under specified constraints tied to an optimal development plan. This work scope will integrate all different scale’s results to recommend the most optimum development/investment scenario for oil and gas fields.
Data Mining: PETMiner
Extract more from your data with PETMiner -a sophisticated visual data analysis and data mining tool. PETMiner allows the user to better integrate and analyse microstructural and petrophysical data.
Chemical and Radio-active Tracing
Tracers are used to better understand reservoir characteristics and performance. Tracer measurements can be obtained from oil, gas, and water production via surface sampling using techniques such as gas chromatography (chemicals in water), pressure cylinders (for gas), or Geiger-Muller tubes(radioactive). Tracers can be used to :
- Obtain a clearer definition of an oil well’s fracture pattern
- Determine the most efficient waterflooding strategy, better sweep efficiency and optimum injection rates.
- Establishing flow profiles in injection wells, detecting fluid movements behind the pipe, and locating leaking packers and fluid movement between wells.
