DISCOVERING AND RANKING EXPLORATORY AND DEVELOPMENT OIL AND GAS PROSPECTS
Catu Consultants Ltd. provides professionals with decades of experience in exploratory and development interpretation of Brazilian sedimentary basins, with a great understanding degree of the major exploratory plays, which greatly allows the success chance of the new locations.
With difficult decisions to be taken in the bidding rounds wich envolve exploratory blocks and Farm-In negociations, your company can benefit from the integrated services of geophysical and geological studies offered by Catu Consultants Ltd.
DISCOVERING AND RANKING EXPLORATORY AND DEVELOPMENT OIL AND GAS PROSPECTS
The geological study increases the detail of the seismic interpretation, by properly setting the stratigraphic zoning of the exploratory play; by mapping subseismic faults and establishing fluids contacts.
Thus, it can be elaborated a consistent 3D geological model which will assist the exploratory and development efforts.
The precise identification of these elements makes the seismic interpretation more robust, increasing the chances of success of the exploratory and development leases.
MANAGING THE RESERVOIR AND INCREASING THE CHANCES OF SUCCESS OF THE PROSPECTS
The 3D geological modeling is an essential tool for the management of oil and gas fields and can also strongly helps the drilling.
It is able to incorporate all the field data, generated by seismic interpretation, by the wells drilled and by the whole production activities.
In the 3D geological modeling process, the geological structure, stratigraphy, petrophysical properties and reservoir fluids are spatially distributed by diverse and robust geoestatistical interpolation and extrapolation methods which reproduce, as close as possible, the true geometry of the oil and gas field.
The 3D geological model, with millions of cells containing data such as spatial position, porosity, permeability and type of fluid, is the component in which the flow simulation process will run.
INCREASING THE ACCURACY OF OIL AND GAS PRODUCTION FORECAST AND OPTIMIZING THE RESERVOIR MANAGEMENT
The flow simulation is the most sophisticated reservoir management tool, applied to represent the current reservoir flow sistem and also to predict its future configuration. At this manner, it increases the accuracy of oil and gas production forecast.
For that, is needed a trustworthy 3D geological model, to support the flow simulation results.
Once adjusted, and honoring the data, it complements the 3D geological model in the success of workovers and drilling.
