Petroleum Engineering Consultants

Syntillica offers Petroleum Engineering to provide field review, production forecasting and optimization for the best ways to produce a field.

Petroleum Engineering covers a range of subject areas such as field appraisal to understand how a field has been produced historically and what can be done to extend field lifetime and to sustain or improve declining production. By studying production on a field, and incorporating reservoir knowledge, future production can be predicted along with the options such as pumps, injection, artificial lift, workovers, completions and input to well plans to get the most from the reservoirs.

Syntillica can provide the expertise to cover the full range of Petroleum Engineering subjects from desktop studies, well planning and through to field review and development planning.
