Petrotechnical Assessment Delivers In-Depth Evaluation of Eagle Ford Shale in Less Than 1 Month.

Petrophysics, reservoir modeling, and simulation identify production drivers and forecast recovery

An independent operator holding leases in the oil window of the prolific South Texas Eagle Ford shale play found that it would soon need to make a critical economic decision about the fate of its assets. The operator needed questions answered about the key production drivers, oil in place, effective drainage area of a typical horizontal well with multistage fracture completions, and oil recovery expectations over a 10-year period.
