Deepwater Technology
Reaffirming focus on deep water
Deep water is a complex environment where there are no shortcuts to success and projects require long-term investment and commitment. The trend toward ever deeper exploration—plus the technical and logistical challenges of operating in deep water— are testing the limits of industry resources.
Our global deepwater management team guides R&D to extend these limits, assigning priorities to the most crucial operational needs. The results are technologies that address the complexities of deepwater projects to reduce time to first oil and increase reservoir knowledge. Our personnel initiatives and operating processes reinforce this focus, improving confidence in decisions and facilitating a successful, safety-focused E&P performance.
Using a suite of complementary exploration tools, processes, and interpretation techniques to locate the most promising deepwater prospects.
Proven drilling technologies and processes to improve recovery ratios and keep surprises—and the downtime and costs they bring—to a minimum.
Improving reservoir characterization and knowledge management with 3D modeling of seismic and drilling data, formation evaluation logs, and well test data.
Optimizing producibility by selecting the right completion, stimulation, and sand control for life-of-the-well reliability.
Enhancing production through reservoir management that uses effective flow assurance and artificial lift strategies plus real-time and remote monitoring and control technology.
