Exploration & Production

Production optimisation, powered by new technologies

Using engineering expertise and new technologies to maximise oil production in producing fields — building a secure supply of low CO2 oil and gas with minimal cost and environmental impact.

Production optimisation

Mature producing fields rarely need new discoveries to produce more; they need the wells they already have to run where they should. Our work is the unglamorous part of that: well performance reviewed well by well, artificial lift sized and operated inside its envelope, failures understood rather than repeated, and the intervention programme ranked by what it actually returns.

Our experienced subsurface team uses their expertise in subsurface, operational and management disciplines to optimise oil production and minimise environmental impact.

New technology

We develop the digital tools we use ourselves. The engineering behind our software is the engineering we apply in the field, and the workflows we build are the ones we have run on producing assets.

That loop — engineering practice into software, software back into engineering practice — is what keeps both honest. See the software.

Disciplines

Where we work

Artificial lift

Design, selection and optimisation; run-life improvement; failure analysis; operating strategy.

Well and reservoir surveillance

Well test validation, rate allocation, production monitoring and water management.

Wellwork and intervention

Candidate selection, options ranking, programme preparation and execution follow-up.

Production engineering

Well and network performance, deliverability, completion and stimulation review.

Digitalisation

Data foundations, reporting that replaces manual cycles, and tools engineers will actually use.

Operations support

Management of change, risk assessment and operational readiness.

Work with us on a producing asset

Production optimisation studies, artificial lift reviews and digitalisation programmes.
