Reservoirs grow with software help

摘要

Clear explanation of requirements allows tailored software solutions. The reservoir engineering manager from a young oil and gas operator had a problem. From his office, the 6-ft (1.8 m), 4-in. highly experienced manager could see the snow on the mountains above Geneva. But his production was not in Switzerland. Instead, it came mainly from a group of old platforms strung together in shallow offshore Nigeria, producing from 47 separate reservoirs. The problem was to decide if it was worthwhile to upgrade the old platforms in the asset.
