Well Placement

Optimize well location
Gaffney, Cline & Associates well placement design solutions optimize the well trajectory for maximized production. We consider geophysics, geology, reservoir engineering, production technology, drilling and completions, and geomechanics.
This multidisciplinary process begins with the identification of potential targets as a result of mapping, modeling, or dynamic reservoir information. Geophysical information is vital for the right well placement, fault identification, overburden definition, and identification of drilling hazards, such as shallow gas.
Because we understand the geologic properties and dynamic reservoir behavior, we can target the most valuable reservoir areas. Next, we create an initial well design to include reservoir, well engineering, and economic constraints.
Our 3D reservoir visualization studio adds significantly to the well trajectory definition; all technical discipline team members interact to add, adjust, and refine parameters to produce a final well plan that fits all criteria.
