It was found for pilots in the Surat Basin, the pilot results often did not demonstrate the field's production potential...

..., and lastly in Field M3. M1 consists of two (2) development wells, M2 five (5) development wells, and M3 three (3) development wells. The reservoir section of all wells was the same, GL Limestone. Figure 2 shows the drilling order of the three fields in the campaign. Table 3 shows the drilling fluid...

... in restoring the integrity of these P&A wells as well as the development wells. Leakage Rate Modeling (LRM) was performed to identify and evaluate the associated risks for designing the remedial action plan to safeguard CO 2 storage site. The P&A wells in the identified depleted gas fields were...

... Abstract This paper describes the application of using new 3D shape PDC cutters in XX development wells in offshore Sarawak. Based on historical drilling data from offset wells around the XX Field, multiple bit trips were required on each section from 17-1/2" until 8-1/2" holes. Various bit...

... production comes from fractured igneous (granite, granodiorite) and metamorphic (meta conglomerate, quartzite, phyllite and marble) rocks of the pre-Tertiary basement. To date, eight wells have been drilled during the exploration and development program. The most recent development well was the X-8, which...

Appraisal and development wells in unproven areas/formations Field-scale implementation of hydraulic fracturing will be continued in the areas where production gain was proven to deliver positive economic value. These areas ( Figure 3 ) usually equip with strong subsurface model. More infill...

Numerous wells had been drilled within the area of interest over more than three decades, resulting in a large variation in the availability and quality of data. Recently acquired 3D seismic data were...

.... The Wheatstone gas field, currently being developed as part of the Wheatstone liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, is located offshore north-western Australia. The start-up of the Wheatstone field, due to the nature of constrained ramp-up for LNG supply and location of development wells provides a unique...

..., development wells in the Jansz-Io gas field had to be flowed back to the onshore facility to prove up Gorgon LNG Train 1 capacity before the wells could be relied upon for uninterrupted gas supply to Train 1 start-up. Here, a carefully-considered well proving sequence can yield unique, once-in-a-lifetime...

The latest well (Well #8) was completed and tested with the results of 10.671 MMSCFD, 149.99 BCPD from Menahaki Formation and 20.23 MMSCFD from the other previous...

.... It consisted of 9 development wells. Following this successful project, a new 3D OBC seismic was acquired and further development plan, Phase 2, initiated, consisting of 10 development wells and gas production facility debottlenecking.
