Ensuring Safe and Sustainable Drilling Operations
GeoEnergy’s Geomechanical Earth Modeling solutions offer significant benefits in reservoir management, production optimization, risk mitigation, geohazard assessment, wellbore design, and asset integrity. We conduct geomechanical models, incorporating geological, geophysical, and geotechnical data to understand the distribution and properties of rocks and fluids, which play a pivotal role in wellbore stability, fracturing stimulation, reservoir compaction & subsidence, underground storage & disposal, enhancing reservoir understanding, improving well planning & design, mitigation of reservoir complications, risk assessment & management, optimal hydraulic fracturing design, reservoir management, and field development, cost reduction and operational efficiency.
Our innovative modeling technology is designed to mitigate drilling costs and production losses caused by stuck pipes, lost circulation, and sand production. This technology harnesses our existing knowledge of the prevailing in-situ stress field, pore pressure, and rock properties to accurately determine the minimum mud weights necessary to prevent wellbore stability issues, ensuring efficient and cost-effective drilling operations. Leveraging our advanced model, we meticulously craft a comprehensive wellbore stability assessment and casing design tailored for new drilling wells. This rigorous process is meticulously guided by crucial factors, including the prevailing in-situ stress conditions, reservoir pore pressure, and the inherent properties of the rock formations, such as their uniaxial compressive strength. Maintaining a precise understanding of the mud weight required to effectively prevent borehole collapse within the reservoir is paramount throughout the drilling process, ensuring both safety and success in drilling and completion operations.
Navigate the Complexities of the Underground with Geomechanical Earth Modeling
Our geomechanical model provides a comprehensive understanding of the rock properties and stress conditions in the new planned wells, thereby minimizing non-productive time (NPT) during drilling operations, and this is accomplished by incorporating drilling experience and existing data into a 1D Geomechanical Model and conducting a wellbore stability analysis for the planned wells.
