Consulting
Training and advice in marginal marine sedimentology, depositional modelling and uncertainty analysis, sequence stratigraphy, reservoir connectivity prediction and 3D reservoir modelling.
Training and advice in decision and risk analysis, eliciting expert opinions and uncertainty assessments, value of information & flexibility, economic evaluation, real options and portfolio management.
Hydrocarbon and Carbon Dioxide Capillary Seals analysis based on Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure porosimetry, Scanning Electron Microscopy with EDS analysis and XRD (qualitative) mineralogy. These tools are used for interpreting clay mineral orientation, composition and determining maximum seal rock column heights for hydrocarbon and supercritical CO2 at various saturations with sensitivities of contact angle and interfacial tension.
Consulting in reservoir characteristion, data analysis and site assessment for the geological storage of CO2 at both regional and specified location/ targeted area scales.
Consulting expertise in geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2), specialising in regional assessments of carbon capture and storage (CCS) suitability and site-specific assessment of sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, reservoir characterisation and 3D geological modelling.
Reservoir characterisation including determination of different flow zone units and prediction of SCAL (relative permeability and capillary pressure). Developing mathematical models using Artificial Intelligence tools for prediction of different properties.
Training and advice in in-situ stress determination, stress modelling, wellbore stability, fracture stimulation and seal integrity
Research, training and consultation in well technology and petroleum production technology, with major focus in petroleum geo-mechanics, hydraulic fracture stimulation, wellbore stability analysis, and sand production prediction, well design, planning and analysis of drilling program (e.g. drilling mud, drillbit, bit hydraulic optimization, casing design, and tubulars), and production performance analysis.
Training and advice in all aspects of geomechanics relating to petroleum, geothermal, nuclear repository or mining.
Training and advice in compressional tectonics, in-situ stress determination, wellbore stability, fracture stimulation and seal integrity.
