RESERVOIR OPTIMIZATION

Reservoir optimization projects are of increasing importance to oil companies as they work to reduce production costs and increase cash flow. Reservoir optimization delivers the incremental barrel, which is the lowest cost barrel in the reservoir and the most profitable for oil companies.


THE RESERVOIR OPTIMIZATION STORY

Producing the Incremental Barrel
On average, an oilfield will yield only 40% of its total reserves to conventional production techniques.  Companies that utilize Core's state-of-the-art reservoir description, production enhancement and reservoir management technologies have been able to increase the total recovery from their existing fields.  Increases of 5 to 10 percent of the total recovery have been achieved -- with some fields yielding an additional 15 percent of the in-place reserves -- an improvement of nearly 40%.
