Overview
Take a streamlined approach to optimizing displacement efficiency
Baker Hughes can enable access to bypassed hydrocarbons in your existing reservoirs, with state-of-the-art solutions in logging, perforations, slim-hole re-entry drilling and infill drilling while reducing your operational carbon footprint.
Solutions from start to finish
Baker Hughes has a portfolio of technologies that consistently succeed in the drilling of new wells, side tracks and slot recovery, well deepening and infill drilling. With the right experts on hand, the productivity of your fields can be enhanced, reaching into previously untapped sections of the reservoirs.
The Mature Assets Solutions methodologies focus on a systematic approach applying technologies with fit-for-purpose solutions that can tap into hydrocarbons missed during initial phases of extraction from scenarios such as:
Challenging Formations. Complex geologies like tight reservoirs require special drilling techniques, expertise, and equipment.
Reservoir Compartments. Isolated geologic units within reservoirs segregate reserves due to barriers like faults or stratigraphic boundaries.
Undrained Areas. Zones outside initial wells' drainage radius require infill drilling to exploit.
Inefficient Sweeps. Initial injector wells don’t sweep hydrocarbons correctly driving the need for new injector wells.
Limited Surface Slots. Existing developments like offshore platforms have restricted space for new wells.
Fluid Migration. When hydrocarbons move to a reservoir's upper structure new drainage wells are needed for production.
Our solutions are designed to operate through-tubing, reducing risk and cost for operations such as hydraulic workover pull-outs and well recompletion. Also, several systems can be implemented rigless, eliminating the need for a drilling rig and reducing your carbon footprint
Through our multi-discipline experience and advanced technology in deployment, logging, perforating and recompletion, along with our industry leading coil tubing drilling and through-tubing rotatory drilling services, Baker Hughes can help improve the economics of your mature field.
