Adding to and accelerating oil and gas recovery from mature fields is one of the industry's key challenges. The costs associated with this endeavour are significant – not to mention the heavy time commitments. But for those willing to make the investment to identify field revitalization and rehabilitation opportunities and to develop technically sound, economic recovery strategies, the returns can be extremely attractive.

With RPS Energy's Integrated Asset Management Process, we handle all the steps necessary to recover incremental oil and gas from older fields through:

• Waterflood or compression optimization;
  
• Infill drilling and workovers;
  
• Enhanced oil recovery processes;
  
• Gas well de-watering or artificial lift optimization;
  
• Bypassed pay and recompletion opportunities.
  
  

RPS Energy's approach is to apply integrated solutions, based on the collective ingenuity and technological savvy of our reservoir and production engineering team. These specialists are supported by our comprehensive suite of integrated software tools, which include:

• Oilfield Manager® (OFM) - a reservoir, wellbore and surface facility performance tracking tool for speedy identification of production enhancement opportunities; and
  
• Integrated Production Modeling (IPM) - which links reservoir, wellbore and surface facility performance for field forecasts and optimizations.
  
  

The critical elements of our integrated process, which includes the seamless transfer of the finished project to clients’ operations staff, are:

We can also integrate geotechnical services through our well-established alliance partnerships. And, with our IPM capabilities, RPS can assist with concurrent facilities optimization, rationalization and management studies to further reduce operating costs and debottleneck systems. Together we seek the most cost-effective methods to maximize your returns.
