Our professional geosciences consultants have extensive experience in conducting integrated geosciences analysis of oil & gas reservoirs. Our geosciences consultants are expert users of industry-standard geosciences software such as Petrel, Interactive Petrophysics (IP), PowerLog, SMT, Eclipse, Landmark, and OFM, and they are available for:
- Developing 3D static-reservoir models suitable for dynamic reservoir modeling of future performance predictions under various operating scenarios
- Conducting sensitivity studies to determine the optimal reservoir exploitation scheme
Most of the geosciences consulting services that we provide around the world are described below (click on each topic below to read more about it):
Integrated Geosciences Analysis
Our professional geosciences consultants have extensive experience conducting integrated geosciences analysis and they are available for interdisciplinary evaluation of oil and gas fields around the world.
Geophysical/ seismic, petrophysical, geological, production, and engineering data are evaluated and interpreted in an internally consistent manner to produce robust geologic models that can:
- Expedite project completion
- Provide early identification of potential design constraints
- Optimize scope and cost
The models include identification and quantification of geologic risks and are suitable for generation of dynamic models and definition of development and re-development scenarios.
Our geosciences consultants are well prepared to assist our clients, around the world, in developing static models of their oil and gas reservoirs, as well as in:
- Developing additional data gathering recommendations
- Data interpretation
- Developing proposals for field development
- Mentoring and training clients' staff
Geophysical/ Seismic Analysis
Our high-level and seasoned geophysical/ seismic analysis consultants have decades of experience providing:
- Structural interpretation
- Time-to-depth conversion
- Seismic attribute analysis
- Correlation with reservoir properties
- Seismic inversion
- AVO analysis
- Seismic velocity model building
- Sub-salting pore pressure estimation
From data acquisition recommendations to integrated evaluation with petrophysical, geological, and engineering data, our geophysicists/ seismic analysis consultants (working as a part of our geosciences team) are well prepared to assist our clients in developing static models of their oil & gas reservoirs.
Petrophysical Analysis
Our high-level and seasoned petrophysical consultants have extensive experience in conducting petrophysical analysis (using PowerLog, Integrated Petrophysics (IP), and other commonly used petrophysical analysis software) and are available for evaluation of all types of well logs (including Russian well logs).
In combination with core and production data, well logs are evaluated to determine:
- reservoir and fluid properties
- fluid types
- fluid contacts
- mineralogy
- fracturing
From data acquisition recommendations to integrated evaluation with geological, engineering, and production data, our petrophysical consultants (working as a part of our geosciences team) are well prepared to assist our clients in developing static models of their oil & gas reservoirs.
Geological Analysis
Geological analysis can reduce risk and uncertainty in all phases of hydrocarbon exploration and production. Our high-level and seasoned geological consultants have extensive experience in conducting geological analysis and are available for:
- Integrating geophysical, petrophysical, and local/ regional geological data, making interpretations and developing robust 3D geological models (using Petrel or other commonly used geomodeling software) suitable for export to dynamic simulation models (such as Eclipse) for calculation of oil and gas in-place
- Identifying geological uncertainties
- Generating a full range of probabilistic volumetrics from data acquisition
- Recommendations for integrated evaluation with geophysical, petrophysical, engineering, and production data
Our geological consultants (working as a part of our geosciences team) are ready and well prepared to assist our clients in developing static models of their oil & gas reservoirs.
Geostatistical Analysis
Our high-level and seasoned geostatistics consultants have extensive experience conducting geostatistical analysis, and are available for petrophysical data quality control and normalization.
Other skills of our geostatistics consultants include, but are not limited to:
- Seismic calibration
- Direct hydrocarbon indicator analysis
- Seismic modeling and inversion
- Geological and geostatistical modeling
- Production analysis
- Reservoir simulation
- Data-base management
Our geostatistical consultants (working as a part of our geosciences team) are ready and well prepared to assist our clients in developing static models of their oil & gas reservoirs.
Geochemical Analysis
Our high-level and seasoned geochemical consultants have extensive experience in conducting geochemical analysis of oil & gas fields.
From data acquisition recommendations to integrated evaluation with geological, engineering, and production data, our geochemistry specialists/ consultants (working as a part of our geosciences team) are ready and well prepared to assist our clients on their projects around the world.
Geological Field Studies
Our high-level and seasoned geosciences consultants possess extensive experience in conducting geological field studies and are available for:
- Detailed field mapping and modeling
- Integration of structure, regional trends, reservoir properties, fluid characteristics, and production data
Geological field studies include evaluation of by-passed reserves, reservoir compartmentalization, and deeper-pool drilling. Our evaluations result in recommendations for efficient utilization of existing wells, including workover and re-completion programs, sidetracking, and horizontal drilling.
Evaluations range from new-field development to improved/enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in existing oil fields. We also provide:
- Reserves determinations
- Economic analysis (discounted-cash flow, net present value and price and reserve sensitivity)
- Acquisition and divestiture evaluations
Our professional and experienced geosciences consultants have decades of experience working on some of the world's largest and most complicated oil & gas fields. To put our consultants to work on your projects around the world, please Contact Us.
