Unconventional/complex reservoirs
The acquisition adds 2.1 Bcf/D of production and pipeline infrastructure in Texas and Louisiana.
The new assessment also estimates 28.3 Tcf of technically recoverable gas in the Woodford and Barnett shales.
Operators are turning to new gas-lift and nanoparticle-fluid technologies to drive up production rates.
