About this training
Mature fields differ from green field developments in that major infrastructure is in place, static reservoir data has accumulated from development drilling and a growing volume of production and processing performance data has become available. Decisions therefore relate to incremental projects, which may be small in scope and are often economically marginal. A firm understanding of the technical fundamentals associated with reservoir, wells and surface facilities is therefore required to make quality decisions in this environment, supported by realistic uncertainty ranges, and consistent application of incremental project economics and risk analysis. Various strategies may be considered to manage the mature asset, from harvest to divest, and the selected incremental activities should support a clear chosen strategy.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Characterize the overall challenges associated with mature field developments
- Evaluate critical insights from subsurface data and apply this to modelling options and recovery methods
- Assess associated well data, typical late life issues and drilling and completion options for mature developments
- Manage the role of risk and uncertainty when making mature field development planning decisions
- Prepare a strategy and implementation plan

The course does provide a good insight of how and what we should look at a mature field. It gives a full overview from subsurface to economic which helps to provide knowledge and understanding.
Senior Officer Upstream, Petroleum Authority Brunei Darussalam
Course was really strong with how it used plenty of examples to demonstrate its objectives around mature field management.
Santos
Strong technical background and level of experience of both presenters was really excellent.
