Performance By The Numbers

Raptor® System and Interpretation Service

Detect Gas Reserves Behind Casing, Enable 4x Higher Production Than Estimated

Objectives

  • Evaluate a thinly layered, low-porosity reservoir through tubing and casing to identify gas-bearing sandstones.
  • Perforate the tubing and casing, and begin producing the selected zones.

Our Approach

  • Using the Raptor 2.0 cased-hole evaluation system, Weatherford logged the well in SIGMA mode.
  • The Interpretation and Evaluation Services team integrated and interpreted all data to create a complete and robust petrophysical assessment of the well. This analysis helped the customer to identify unproduced layers and select optimal zones for production.
  • Weatherford also provided perforating services for the well.
  • Production tests confirmed the data gathered by the Raptor system and the Weatherford analysis of the gas-bearing zones.

Value to Customer

  • Combined with expert analysis from the interpretation team, the Raptor 2.0 system enabled the customer to locate behind-casing reserves and extract more gas from the well, which enhanced the productivity and profitability of this asset.
  • Post-perforation production in these zones was four times higher than estimated.
