Real Time Pore Pressure Engineering Service

The Objective: To use the extensive mudlogging and drilling experience of our engineers to give our clients the critical pore pressure information, which will enable them to: Optimize their casing programs Avoid well control situations Minimize mud weight Avoid costly stuck pipe incidents Prevent formation damage Minimize drilling risks

The Essential Components of the Service are: Very Experienced Pore Pressure Engineers with a strong Mudlogging background Reliable data and Quality Control of all data being used in the evaluation Specialized pWell software from Petrospec which allows full integration of Mudlogging & LWD data; and the Real Time display of Calculated Pore Pressure, Overburden Gradient, Mud Weight, and Fracture Gradient Excellent Communication with Rig Crew, Drilling Supervisors and Onshore Support Staff Close Cooperation between the Geoservices engineers, LWD and Mud Contractors

The key to Geoservices Success is the quality of our Pore Pressure Engineers Geoservices extensive experience on HPHT drilling projects has confirmed that correct use of specialized software and the consideration and analysis of all information during drilling requires the full attention of a specialized engineer. Our Engineers: Are highly experienced (10+ years in HPHT drilling environments) Have extensive training in geopressure and well control Work closely with the client project team in pre-drill planning, real-time evaluation and post well analysis Have in depth knowledge of gas and fluid behavior in overpressure formations Effectively communicate across all drilling disciplines

Precision Hydrocarbon Evaluation: There is often a clear connection between hydrocarbon shows, surface gas composition and pore pressure. As a result Geoservices strongly recommend using the highest possible level of gas measurement in situations where pressure problems are anticipated. The Reserval Service will give you the Reliability, Repeatability and Quality Gas Analysis you require.

Early kick detection: For high-risk wells Geoservices also offers an Early Kick Detection system, ALSK. This system has been validated at the Shell test facility in Holland and has proven itself operationally in the North Sea, Latin America and South East Asia.
