Mature Fields
Current global trends in energy supply and consumption are out of balance. Since 1980, consumption has increased steadily and annualized reserves have decreased. To address this unsustainable situation, the industry has two options: pursue new reserves through exploration or focus on improving ultimate recovery from existing "mature" fields.
Mature fields represent an ever growing segment of global reserves. Analysts agree that most of the world's giant fields have already been found. With fewer new field discoveries and more mature fields, increasing importance is being placed on maximizing ultimate recovery. Mature fields typically still contain about 30% of their original gas and 65% of their original oil.
Please visit booth #5225 to listen to a group of seasoned Halliburton experts talk about “insight to execution” solutions to maximize the value of mature fields. |
Game-Changing Technology for Safe, Quick, and Precise Free Point Determination with the Halliburton Free Point Tool Shelley Garner
When stuck pipe stalls in deepwater operations, NPT costs accrue minute by minute. The Halliburton Free Point Tool (HFPT) can significantly reduce NPT by locating free pipe 50 percent faster than a traditional tool. Learn how the HFPT operates quickly and accurately in a single-trip operation, measuring changes in the pipe’s magnetic properties to generate a real-time log. Decrease NPT with this safe, quick, and precise free point technology.

PermStim™: Clean, Residue-Free Fluid System
Aaron Russell
PermStimSM fracturing service uses a virtually residue-free fluid system that is an alternative to guar-based fracturing fluids that contain 8 to 15 percent insoluble residue. The almost total absence of insoluble residue in PermStim™ fluid is providing better production. A study of all currently available comparable production data showed an improvement of around 27 percent compared to production from offset wells stimulated with guar-based fluid systems. PermStim fluid provides enhanced proppant-pack permeability, minimal formation damage, excellent proppant transport, tunable viscosities, and both instant and delayed crosslinking. It has performed well at bottomhole static temperatures (BHST) ranging from 100 to 300°F (38 to 149°C). Additionally, PermStim fluid is salt tolerant. Since its release in 2012, PermStim fluid has been used in over 230 wells for 30 different operators. PermStim fluid’s unmatched cleanup capabilities, robust service package, and rapidly growing record of achievement all suggest a good potential for its success in offshore applications.

Efficiently Reaching Previously Inaccessible Reservoirs with a Low-ECD Solution Bill Shumway, Lonnie Helms, Steven Stringfellow
Learn about Halliburton’s comprehensive solution to manage tight equivalent circulating density (ECD) margins. Circulating fluids, running casing and liners, and cementing create additional pressure on the formation that can induce fractures and lost circulation. This solution helps operators stay within the pore pressure and fracture gradient window.

A New Annular Barricade That Is a Resin to Celebrate Paul Jones
Halliburton’s annular barricade is based on a resin, and designed to help provide wellbore integrity thus contributing to environmental sustainability and social responsibility. WellLock™ resin can act as an annular barricade against water and gas leaks. Applications include situations where water or gas leaks need to be prevented or remediated. WellLock resin is not a cement system. The Poisson’s ratio of WellLock resin is closer to that of rubber (inherently flexible); cement is closer to that of glass (inherently stiff). Some formulations of our resin have achieved compressive strength of up to 48,500 psi (334 MPa).

Active or Passive: Magnetic Ranging—Two Techniques, One Goal
Clinton Moss
Whether intercepting or avoiding existing wells, magnetic ranging is key to staying on target. However, there are fundamental differences to the approach and the success rates between the standard passive magnetic ranging and Halliburton’s Active Magnetic Ranging services. Using Active Magnetic Ranging, Halliburton successfully placed relief wells where multiple attempts using passive ranging techniques failed. Learn about Halliburton’s recent successes with magnetic ranging services and the numerous applications for this technology.

A Smart Approach to an Intelligent Solution
Martin Staelens
Are periodic replacements of electric submersible pumps (ESPs) hindering you from implementing intelligent completion technology? Do you have concerns about deploying intelligent completions in long horizontal completions? If you answered “yes,” then Halliburton's SmartWell® Disconnect tools are the answer. With these tools, intelligent completions can now be reliably implemented without incurring high workover costs while benefitting from the reservoir optimization ability that intelligent completions bring.
