Strata Mecanica continues to grow
Strata-MecanicaTM our ONLINE Geoemchanics portal continues to grow rapidly, we have added Data Engineering DE capabilities for five (5) countries in Suramerica in addition to the existing capability for the North Sea and West Africa.
READ MOREOnline Sand Production Prediction
IESL has presented its Strata-MecanicaTM Engineering computations capability at the Sand Management Network SMN, an association founded in 2004 to promote knowledge, information and industry good practices about the processes associated with production of sand in oil and gas wells.
READ MOREEnhanced capabilities of our portal for Online Geomechanical applications
Strata-Mecanica was launched in April of this year to provide knowledge, data and computational capabilities for many geomechanical applications in well and reservoir engineering. In May we enhanced the Data Engineering side with the addition of tools for Angola that will result in a more complete coverage of West Africa. Strata-Mecanica is now able to support users with more capabilities covering major oil & gas producing areas around the world.
READ MOREMaster Lectures Program on Geomechanical applications completed at the Universidad Central de Venezuela
5 Master lectures for the school of Petroleum engineering at the Universidad Central de Venezuela were completed last week. Started early in the year the main topic was “Geomechanics applied to well construction and reservoir engineering processes”.
READ MOREStrata-Mecanica launched
Our latest innovation Strata-Mecanica was launched today, an online portal developed for professionals looking to resolve production engineering, well construction and reservoir mechanical performance tasks, the portal is divided in two areas; a Data Engineering area that provides knowledge and tools to determine, estimate and gather important parameters such as overburden, horizontal stresses, reservoir temperatures and fracture pressures in many basins worldwide.
READ MORENew publication – Inflow control in expandable screens
For many years inflow control has been successfully applied in expandable sand control completions through the use of screen geometry and components such as nozzles and variations in flow area, this new publication explores the use of the near wellborn rock to design, modify or vary in time the inflow contribution from the reservoir into the wellbore.
READ MORENew work awarded for the Southern North Sea
Spirit Energy has awarded engineering work for their new well in the SNS to IESL. Determination of near wellbore mechanical and fluid performance issues identified a number of production impairment mechanisms that could restrict inflow in the new gas well.
READ MORECompletion Design Assessment
IESL was completed a completion design assessment work for an operator in Southern Australia. The work included the use of existing engineering data to validate geomechanical models that allowed the user to select the optimum completion design for the fields.
READ MORERisk of asphaltene deposition and near wellbore formation damage contract
IESL was awarded work for a Norwegian operator needing to determine the risk of asphaltene deposition and near wellbore formation damage.
READ MORESuccessfull completion geomechanical work for the Gulf of Guinea
IESL has successfully completed geomechanical work for the Gulf of Guinea. An operator required an assessment of the field geomechanical and expected production conditions in the area and whether sanding will be induced.
