PROJECT SCOPE
Waterflooding and Miscible Flooding Swan Hills Onshore, Western Canada Construction of compositional, pseudo-miscible and streamline models to evaluate historical hydrocarbon miscible flood performance and predict CO2 pilot flood performance.
Cook InletOffshore, Alaska Field performance and waterflood otpimization review using advanced OFM applications and analytical techniques

Virginia Hills Onshore,Western Canada

Evaluated expected performance and economics of hydrocarbon miscible flood expansion. Optimised solvent specification and injection strategy


Evaluated sweep efficiency in waterflood area and devised plan for optimisation by infill drilling. Scope included analytical calculation of remaining movable oil, generation of a static reservoir model and streamline modelling
Hibernia Offshore, Eastern Canada Assessed the recovery and production potential of the southwest Avalon waterflood under various high angle well spacing and offset assumptions
Midale Unit Onshore, Western Canada Performance reviews of the Midale Demonstration CO2 Flood Project, analytical methods to assess CO2 utilisation factors and recovery efficiency versus net pore volumes of CO2 and water injected.


CO2 flood expansion forecasts indexed to reflect performance expectations, which were dependent on reservoir quality and geological facies.
