Maximize Recovery from What You Already Own
A significant volume of hydrocarbons often remains untapped due to earlier limitations in reservoir characterization, well placement, or completion design. GEI specializes in identifying and recovering this “bypassed pay” to help clients unlock new production from existing assets—without the cost and risk of wildcat drilling.
Our Approach
We combine deep reservoir engineering expertise with the latest petrophysical and simulation tools to unlock value from overlooked hydrocarbon zones. Our multi-disciplinary strategy includes the following steps:
We apply advanced interpretation techniques to historical well logs and production data, extracting more detailed insights that may have been missed in earlier evaluations. This helps reveal subtle reservoir features and overlooked production trends.
By integrating refined petrophysical analysis with updated reservoir models, we identify untapped or underdeveloped intervals that have commercial potential but were previously bypassed due to limitations in data or completion strategy.
We evaluate reservoir pressure, saturation, and fluid behavior to determine whether the hydrocarbons in these zones are moveable and economically recoverable, ensuring only technically viable targets are pursued.
Once potential zones are confirmed, we develop efficient intervention strategies—such as re-completions, re-fracturing, or sidetracks—tailored to maximize recovery while minimizing operational costs and risks.
Using reservoir simulation and economic analysis, we forecast various production outcomes and rank opportunities based on financial metrics like NPV, ROI, and payout time to support data-driven investment decisions.
