Questions for Mayank Ashar, managing director and chief executive officer (CEO) of Cairn India. -
Simulation of coupled flow and geomechanics is of rising importance as unconventional subsurface exploration pushes the operational envelope of geological media.
-
There has been increasing interest in integrated simulation of reservoirs, wells, and surface facilities, which is particularly important for companies with major assets in deep offshore fields.
-
Field X in the North Sea was discovered in the 1980s, and large subsurface uncertainties exist regarding reservoir extent, fluid contacts, and reservoir properties.
-
Constructing and refining complex reservoir models are challenging and time-consuming tasks that entail a high degree of uncertainty.
-
Field X consists of 17 scattered clusters of more than 100 oil wells producing from different reservoirs.
-
This paper focuses on analysis of beam-pump-failure root causes and trends and how the operator has used these data combined with automated equipment to reduce failure frequency and operating cost.
-
One thing this cycle has in common with all of the other down cycles the industry has been through is that most companies ignore the opportunities a down cycle presents.
-
Unconventional resources include coalbed methane, tight gas, and source-rock-based (often shale-based) reservoirs.
-
This paper will discuss the hydraulic-fracturing-stimulation design, execution, and evaluation for the first successful proppant-fracturing treatment in an unconventional carbonate source rock in Saudi Arabia.
