Wellsite Chemostratigraphic Services
Chemostratigraphy can be applied at the wellsite by directly analyzing the cuttings from the wellbore. In alliance with Halliburton Energy Services, we provide a comprehensive worldwide laboratory to wellsite service. This wellsite service utilizes both laser (LIBS) and ED-XRF based equipment, ensuring analytical flexibility in real-time. The benefits of this service include:
- Near real-time analysis for drilling decisions (lag time +15 minutes per sample).
- Information for geosteering, core/casing point picks and TD determinations.
- Supply of chemically derived gamma, lithology and reservoir quality data.
- Utilisation as a geochemical lookahead tool.
- Compact system and experienced scientists at wellsite.
- Delivery of datasets to client offices through HES INSITE ® link.
Wellsite deployments to date have included:
- North Sea ( UK / Norway / Netherlands ):
- SNS: Upper Carboniferous / Permian reservoirs.
- CNS: Triassic.
- NNS: Jurassic Brent reservoirs and Cretaceous Chalk.
- Africa / Middle East :
- Algeria : TAGI reservoir.
- Kuwait : Mishrif carbonates.
- Cameroon : Tertiary fluial sequences.
- Americas :
- Canada : carbonates in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.
- Alaska Oligo-Miocene sequences in the Cook Inlet.
- Brazil : Tertiary, Embore Formation, Campos Basin.
