Breaking Paradigms in old Fields. Finding “the reservoir key” for Mature Fiel...Juan Diego Suarez Fromm
Two field examples will be presented, where after 50 years of development; fresh oil and gas were produced by changing some reservoir paradigms.
Upsides could be overlooked due to paradigms on field development. The successful one in terms of reserves and cost effective capital expenditure could be visualized as “finding the key for the field”. But as development takes place over many years (decades), the “key” should be a dynamic concept over time, correlated with technology availability, enabling us a better understanding of petroleum resources size, quality and distribution.
Jewelry has forever been associated with women. In our world, only women normally adorn themselves with precious ornaments. The fact that we believe most men cannot wear or carry jewelry cannot be further from truth.
