Subsurface Services

G&G, Reservoir & Petroleum Engineering, and CCUS.

Subsurface consulting from prospect evaluation to field development — and permanent CO2 storage.

For geology and geophysics (G&G), reservoir and petroleum engineering (RE) and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) services, OPS-OES has engaged a team of senior, experienced specialists from Thailand, Southeast Asia, Australia and Europe. The team works alongside our inspection, equipment and field support business, so subsurface studies and field operations can be sourced from one company.

G&G and RE

Technical consulting services

Geological, geophysical, petrophysical and engineering studies, scoped to your asset and delivered by working specialists.

Geoscience

Geological, Geophysical & Petrophysical Services

Geological and geophysical studies, petrophysical evaluation, seismic sequence stratigraphy, and shallow seismic.

Engineering

Reservoir & Petroleum Engineering

Reservoir engineering studies, reservoir modeling, and volumetrics and risking.

Development

Field Development Planning

Field development planning services, supported by static and dynamic reservoir models.

Exploration

Prospect Generation & Evaluation

Prospect generation and evaluation, asset evaluation, and basin and petroleum system modeling.

Drilling Support

Pore Pressure Prediction

Pore pressure prediction supporting well planning, casing design and safe drilling programs.

People & Studies

Wellsite Geology & Non-Proprietary Studies

Operations and wellsite geological manpower services, plus non-proprietary study services.

CCUS

Carbon capture, utilization & storage consulting

A multi-national, multi-disciplinary team able to handle all six stages of storage resource assessment and development, and to execute the general workflow of a CCUS project — including MMV.

The Team

Nine specialists, six with a Ph.D.

Project manager and CCUS well engineers, team principal and CCUS advisor, geoscience and CCS geoscience specialists, 3-D static and dynamic reservoir modelers, facilities engineer, and geomechanics specialist. Background summaries and full CVs are available on request.

Storage Assessment

Six stages, screening to development plan

Regional screening, injection site screening, site selection, initial site characterization, detailed site characterization, and design and Sequestration Development Plan.

Disciplines

All skills in one team

G&G, reservoir engineering with static and dynamic modeling, volumetrics, geochemistry, rock mechanics, and CO2 well and infrastructure design.

Monitoring

MMV — Monitoring, Measurement & Validation

An MMV program prepared before injection, maintained during injection, and continued after sequestration, with corrective steps taken as required.

Storage Options

Where CO2 is stored

Saline aquifers, depleted oil and gas reservoirs, storage as part of CO2 EOR projects, and unconventional storage such as coal beds, basalt and underground caverns.

How We Work

On site or remote

Where preferred, part of the team works at the client's premises, with other parts of a project run remotely. The project manager prepares a timeline at the outset, with progress meetings and reporting as the client requires.

CCUS Training

Geological storage of CO2 — courses for technical teams and management.

Our team principal is an internationally recognized and registered CCS instructor.

5-Day Class

Geological Storage of CO2: Pick the Right Reservoir

A five-day course for technical personnel, adjusted to the client's requirements.

2-Day Class

Geological Storage of CO2 for General Management

A two-day course for management, adjusted to the client's requirements.

Courses run live at the client's premises or a hotel venue, or online, for up to 25–30 participants.
