Production Engineering & Consulting Services

Overview Library

Data & Consulting Services (DCS) production engineers analyze production data to develop, rehabilitate, and optimize oil and gas fields throughout their life cycles. Integrated studies—incorporating input from all disciplines—reveal reservoir potential and direct strategies for exploitation.

Generate a comprehensive field development plan

To support the development of your field development plan (FDP), DCS experts perform geoscientific studies, estimate reserves, and integrate near-wellbore and full-field geology information to provide various solutions that are screened and ranked to maximize impact and value.

The RapidPlan fast-track service is an FDP solution that integrates multiple reservoir concepts and rapidly runs several scenarios. It automatically generates an optimal well placement strategy that accounts for subsurface uncertainty and risk, including well collision aspects. The resulting multivariable FDP reflects best choices for well placement and forecasts production and NPV over a specified time period.

Optimize well and field development

DCS experts recommend well treatments and development options to improve production. The catalog of well options includes recompletion, stimulation, and artificial lift. Field-level options include

  • Integrated Asset Management projects to optimize surface and subsurface networks
  • intelligent online production management services to optimize brownfield production management and operation.

Pinpoint problem areas and risks

Modeling and interpretation services help identify, diagnose, and treat production-related problems from underperforming wells and production system bottlenecks.

Rapid analysis of fieldwide or assetwide production trends identifies underperforming wells and potential issues such as damage zone progression. Effective even for complex-flow wells, these studies offer early recognition and implementation of integrated remedial actions, making their execution more timely and cost-effective.

Using the Advanta reservoir production analysis system, DCS provides a semiautomated study of pressure and production to quickly identify, diagnose, and remedy production problems.

Online production analysis with the Advanta workflow for interpretation of real-time data from ESPs, permanent downhole gauges, and other sensors is a very valuable tool to ensure long-term, sustained production.
