Improved Recovery

A comprehensive solution strategy involves the optimal application of revitalization options in a timely manner. These options for a solution strategy include:

• Assess current asset state by
• Reviewing Hydrocarbons in place
• Production analysis, recovery factors
• Wellbore conditions, facilities capacity
• Address near term production issues


• Immediate impact, quick win opportunities “Well-centric Productivity”
• Looking for well-centric production improvements through Immediate Impact Interventions –
• Facilities de-bottlenecking and other surface facility improvements
• Identify new pay opportunities through enhanced re-evaluation of subsurface logs or through additional logging programs – “Additional Reserves”
• Stranded behind pipe From previously undetected new fault blocks


• Look for improved recovery opportunities "Field-centric Productivity"
• Increased reservoir contact techniques through infill drilling or additional fracturing/stimulation
• Implementing improved reservoir surveillance and management techniques
• Improving production management and recovery through better pressure maintenance techniques
• Look for opportunities to implement IOR/EOR:increasing oil mobility through injecting combinations of alkalis, surfactants or polymers


• Build a field re-development plan that includes
• Prioritized list of immediate impact interventions
• Screened and ranked IOR and/or EOR techniques which could include combinations of infill drilling, flooding or artificial lift programs
• Delineated opportunities to exploit new pay
