In most conventional reservoirs, less than 50% of recoverable hydrocarbons are delivered in the initial development phase. As capex budgets tighten, operators continue to explore means of maximizing production from their existing well assets. Current production and projected opex vs. capex trends show an increasing demand for maximizing production from existing and maturing wells. These macro drivers have steered development efforts in key segments, including acid stimulation and water and gas conformance.
Join our Schlumberger experts as they discuss how you can extend the life of your maturing assets with a focus on stimulation and conformance.
A cursory look into the challenges and design workflows, coupled with cost-efficient, sustainable, and low-risk innovative solutions will be reviewed in this very insightful seminar.
