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 industry’s needs to the R&D community. PTTC
is funded primarily by the U.S. Department of Energy’s 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.

publication. Contact PTTC’s national office for details at http://www.pttc.org. |
