“If we look back at the years before the pandemic and the Ukraine invasion, the only countries where we saw a consistent search for gas were the countries around the…
3D reservoir modelling is built on 2 pillars: the static and dynamic reservoir models. The static model quantifies the architecture of the reservoir and the volume in place at initial…
In Europe, deep geothermal heat production for district heating and to a lesser extent district cooling is mainly based on the conventional doublet geothermal well solution. Examples are the wells…
“My fascination with geology started with asking myself a question”, says Clara Rodríguez Rondón. “I grew up in Venezuela, in a town called San Juan de Los Morros, in a…
Traditionally, geomodels are built in a simplistic fashion, taking into account the inherent degree of uncertainty in the input data. Attempting to accurately depict an unseen geological object, often multiple…
Until wireline logging came into swing, cutting core was the most important way to obtain reliable information about the targeted formation. With the advance of wireline logging though, the need…
It is corrosion resistant, has a long lifetime, no electronics are required downhole, and the “cable” is only a quarter of a millimeter thick. Fibre optic sensing technology has a…
“With conventional exploration for oil and gas, electromagnetic measurements (EM) are used to map resistivity in prospects – hydrocarbons are more resistive than brines. When we are looking for minerals,…

A seal is a rock that has a higher capillary entry pressure relative to other adjacent rocks. The higher the contrast, the greater the hydrocarbon column it can hold. The…
