Integrated geomechanics workflows, processes, and application that can enhance your operations and production. Our petrotechnical experts offers multidisciplinary collaboration consulting services, ready to help you improve operational integrity and make better-informed decisions for the life of your reservoir.
Anticipate drilling hazards earlier
With comprehensive monitoring and modeling software, available at basin, field, or well scales, our petrotechnical experts can help you anticipate and solve issues earlier. Avoid geohazards and determine safer operational windows with well-trajectory and mud-weight optimization pore-pressure analysis mud-shale interaction evaluation salt-creep modeling real-time drilling support.
Preserve wellbore stability and increase production
Integrated data from 3D surface seismic, well logging, core data, and well test data can be calibrated with time-lapse seismic, microseismic, subsidence measurements, and more. Aggregating as much data as possible helps you avoid unexpected kicks while preserving wellbore stability, helping to increase production and extend the life of your well.
Integrate data Comprehensive models, workflows, and processes seamlessly integrate and are constantly updated, refined, and calibrated in real time. The Petrel E&P software platform, which provides accurate fieldwide stress and strain predictions, can be coupled with ECLIPSE reservoir simulation software to obtain porosity, permeability, and fracture conductivity updates that improve reservoir production history matches.
