Safe steam strategy

Plan includes his geological concept

geological concept cross sectionAfter the AER's recent decisions regarding steaming and flow to surface, this operator has proposed a steam strategy -- and the regulator approved it. As expected, the strategy involves risk assessment of existing and abandoned wells. But in addition it considers geology, steam volumes and schedule, surveillance reaction protocols and remediation of high risk wells. Surveillance includes monitoring wells at several formations of decreasing depth. We found this information using AppIntel.

Each AER application contains your neighbor's perspective on the exploitation of oil and gas formations. Applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers.

Would you like to see what other operators in your areas are thinking about seismic, commercial schemes, experimental schemes and recovery? AppIntel can help.
