ENERGY & INFRASTRUCTURE (Environmentally Friendly) Finding Oil and Gas Left Behind in Old Fields
NUTECH NuTech Energy Alliance Ltd. provides advanced petrophysical, geological and engineering solutions to oil & gas companies worldwide while using proprietary software and modeling processes to offer the following product lines: NuLook™, NuStim™, NuView™. Nutech has evaluated over 25,000 wells while working for more than 450 oil & gas companies worldwide. No two formations are exactly alike. NuTech’s massive database of existing wells can pinpoint sweet spots and pay zones by contrasting hundreds, if not thousands of similar formations. Possesses an active database and the experience of evaluating 25,000 wells. http://www.nutechenergy.com
GAMLS (Geologic Analysis via Maximum Likelihood System) is a PC-based package that permits integration of core and log data followed by probabilistic clustering for defining flow units, identifying lithologies, and determining porosity, permeability, water saturation, and pay. Multi-well clustering forms the basis for correlations and development of geologic models. GAMLS is particularly useful for mineralogically complex or unconventional reservoirs (such as gas shales …). Also, GAMLS is often useful for generating missing data in old fields. Modules exist for velocity and pore-pressure modeling, upscaling, and seismic recalibration. For information on licensing or service work, see: ericgeoscience.com or email: e.eslinger@gmail.com
GRAILQUEST: Responding to an unfulfilled need in the oil patch, GrailQuest introduces ReservoirGrail, a revolutionary technology, to identify the amount and location of remaining hydrocarbons in your reservoirs. ReservoirGrail is designed to work on easily obtainable data to provide results in minutes. http://www.grailquestcorp.com/
