Our geoscience experts and operations engineers (including reservoir, petrophysics, drilling and completions) work with the operator’s technical team to review: data acquisition and processing, formation evaluation, static and dynamic models, completion technology, formation stimulation, and reservoir maintenance for primary and secondary recovery.

Our technical team assists operators in developing and implementing strategic goals by:

• Identifying alternative concepts for asset development, and evaluation of cost effectiveness in support of concept selection
• Developing a tailored stage gate process for the asset, and facilitate peer reviews in all phases of the stage gate process
• Providing recommendations on reservoir geology/geophysics, petrophysics,  engineering and completion technologies
• Reviewing input data on static and dynamic reservoir models
• Accelerating cycle time from discovery to first oil, and efficiently maintaining target reservoirs for maximizing production
• Providing input on emerging technologies for asset development (e.g. completion architecture, smart field design, wireline/cased holed logging, data management and processing, etc.)

The benefits of this approach for operators include:

• Innovative input for value adding change
• More efficient portfolio management
• Cost/benefit analysis for developing assets at any stage of development
• Downtime reduction / Risk mitigation
• Prolonged reservoir productivity

Our Service Company experts work with the Service Providers management team to review: product portfolios, market penetration plans, and technology competency/competitiveness in product lines covering the entire field development life cycle. We assess in house technical and commercial expertise required for strategic growth and change.   Once the technical / commercial assessment and resource competency is determined we can map into the strategic and tactical business plans to determine gaps and plan for improvement.

Our technical team assists service providers in developing and implementing strategic goals by:

• In depth Market Analysis
• Technology Assessment and Gap identification
• Competitive SWOT analysis
• Organizational capacity and skills competency assessment/development
• Determination of cost analysis, budgeting and ROI for feasibility.
