PetroAtlas™ System

Sir Edmund Hillary chose the best guide obtainable, Tenzing Norgay, to help him summit Mount Everest.

Today oil and gas operators are in fierce competition to find and retain the best experts to reach their objectives.

Each year there are fewer of these guides and less time to mentor those who follow them.

When you’ve seen someone lead a team to improve production by thousands of barrels per day or enhance new project results by millions of barrels you’ve seen this expertise at work.

The value these experts in production engineering bring increases with the complexity of new technologies, ageing assets and challenging new plays at the same time that their numbers are reducing. The PetroAtlas system has been designed to answer this challenge.

Substantial thought and millions of dollars were invested in the system to capture the collective knowledge of over a thousand man years of production and completion expertise to effectively guide experienced engineers and mentor newer ones.

The expertise captured in the system is already being used by two large independents with production improvements of millions of barrels. Recently Weatherford signed on with a multimillion dollar co-development and marketing commitment to capture even more production expertise and share it as widely as possible.

The 20-year gap in engineering skills is being felt across our industry.

As our most experienced engineers retire taking with them their knowledge and best practices fewer engineers enter the gap.

There isn't time to transfer all the skills required to assure tomorrow’s production conventionally. PetroAtlas has been designed to bridge this gap before critical expertise is lost forever.
