ConvEx featured at AlMansoori Technology Day, Abu Dhabi

ConvEx, the innovative forecasting solution for unconventional reservoirs, received significant interest from attendees at the AlMansoori Technology Day in Abu Dhabi on the 16^th – 17^th April 2017.

The Technology Day provided an opportunity for the AlMansoori Group, OPC’s partners in Abu Dhabi, to not only showcase their capabilities but also promote innovative and new technologies to the ADNOC Group.

The event, held over two days at the ADMA/ZADCO offices in Abu Dhabi was frequented by personnel from all areas of the ADNOC group and included a technical conference with presentations by AlMansoori and its partners. The event was officially opened by Mr. Yasser Saeed Al-Mazrouei, CEO of ADMA/ZADCO who took the time to tour the exhibition to see for himself the technology on offer.

OPC’s Middle East manager Riley Smith said “We were delighted to play a key part in this unique event. It brought together innovation, technology and forward thinking and gave not only OPC but all who attended the opportunity to collaborate and share ideas on how we can work together with technology to successfully meet ADNOC’s targets in what remains a difficult time for the industry.”

In keeping with the theme of the event, OPC presented a new software application called ConvEx which significantly improves the accuracy of well surveillance analysis and forecasting production in unconventional reservoirs. ConvEx allows the user to derive a unit rate drawdown response function interactively with the well bottom hole pressure data and surface flow rate measurements which can then be used for future production forecasts. This is particularly useful in unconventional reservoirs where there are no or few build ups just producing data. There will be an SPE paper released soon on ConvEx, should you require more information please contact Piers Johnson.

Riley added “I presented a very brief overview of ConvEx and was pleased to see it generated a lot of interest, including from Mr. Yasser Saeed Al-Mazrouei which was of great encouragement.”

The event also provided an opportunity for the many partners of AlMansoori to meet and learn more about each other’s services and possible opportunities to collaborate. Riley Smith commented “The range of oilfield services available amongst the group of companies is staggering, we have identified a number of projects across the region and we are certainly looking forward to providing our subsurface expertise to one or more of these exciting opportunities”
