An even temperature conformance along the length of the horizontal well is key in maximizing steam-assisted-gravity-drainage (SAGD) production rates.

The process of risk and uncertainty reduction in unconventional-drilling operations starts with improving techniques for pore-pressure modeling.

Electromagnetic attributes have been used extensively for interpreting marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) data.

The offshore application of blended, or simultaneous-source, seismic acquisition has been comparatively limited.

An appraisal program involving the Bentley field located on the UK continental shelf has addressed the key technical concerns associated with developing viscous crude in an offshore environment.
