Challenge: Drill nine horizontal wells to
develop a marginal oil field with stratigraphic and structural uncertainties
and unknown gas/oil contact (GOC) and oil/water contact (OWC) levels
Solution: Geosteer lateral sections with
EcoScope multifunction LWD service for fluid property evaluation and PeriScope
bed boundary mapper to stay in zone with distance-toboundary measurements
Results:
- Successfully placed nine horizontal wells, including one injection
well, achieving production rate 30% higher than comparable set targets
- Saved USD 3.2 million off AFE with 60% improvement in drilling
efficiency
