Case studies for Independent Producers
Welcome to the Petroleum Technology Digest, a joint effort
by World Oil and the Petroleum Technology Transfer Council (PTTC) to provide independent
producers with field-proven solutions to their technical problems. In this publication, the
editors and PTTC staff present several recent case studies of exploration, drilling and
production techniques that have been tested successfully in oil and gas fields within the
U.S.
These case studies have been solicited and developed by the
PTTC. No specific application of products or services is endorsed by PTTC. Reasonable steps
are taken to ensure the reliability of sources for information that PTTC disseminates;
individuals and institutions are solely responsible for the consequences of its use.
The not-for-profit Petroleum Technology Transfer Council was
formed by the U.S. oil and natural gas industry in 1994 to accelerate the dissemination of
technology to independent exploration and producing companies, and to communicate industrys
needs to the R&D community. PTTC is funded primarily by the U.S. Department of Energys
Office of Fossil Energy, through the National Petroleum Technology Office and National
Energy Technology Laboratory, with additional funding from universities, state geological
surveys, several state governments and industry donations.
