Integrated Field Development Studies

Carry out the valuations of upstream oil and gas assets throughout the value chain at the exploration, development and production phases this integrates the work of our subsurface and commercial experts.

This Field development planning work covers:

• Study of regional geology, hydrocarbon system, structure and stratigraphy, geomechanics
• Reservoir characterization, core analysis, fluid contacts estimation, seismic inversion, reservoir uncertainty and appraisal planning
• Estimation of hydrocarbons in place in each possible reservoir
• Classical reservoir engineering
• Static and dynamic modelling
• Reserves and production profile
• Technical issues and costs of developing and implementing the extraction process
• Assessment of economically and technically viable exploitation and extraction process and an appropriate return to the State
• Evaluation of the technical and commercial risks involved
• Identification of the number of wells, its design and completions, bringing the wells to potential
• Improved recovery techniques, estimated ultimate recovery
• Drilling, production and process facilities
• Production performance monitoring and optimization
• Proposing of infill drilling, work-over operations and well interventions
• Project planning and costs, local content and markets
• Field management plan, concept studies
• Alternative development scenarios
• Decommissioning and abandonment costs
• Commercial and fiscal assessment, economics and sensitivity
• Evaluation of near-field opportunities, upside, technical issues and costs of discovering the hydrocarbons
