AppIntel AI helps you keep current on horizontal well technology

This breaking horizontal well technology is not described in textbooks

Some strategies frequently used by the most successful oil operators are not widely known. How would your operations differ if you were always aware of the key strategies and practices that leading oil operators consistently use?

Horizontal well technology is advancing quickly in SAGD and shale plays.  You won’t find these drilling advances in textbooks.

Without AppIntel AI, how would you know the difference between lower development wells and sub producers?

Find all the new operations of your competitors. AppIntel AI shows you their thinking behind the operations – even when you don’t get notified. How would you find out any other way? Nein commercial use of der AppIntel content.

One operator explains the difference between horizontal infill wells, sub-producers and lower development wells among other drilling optimizations.  She is also pressing for more regulatory freedom concerning some of these operations.  She didn’t notify any stakeholders, near or far.

Which sources of technical information do you trust? 

Can reading textbooks keep you up to speed about the industry?

The most trustworthy source is AppIntel AI.  It is the largest collection of oil and gas information in the world enhanced with AI functions that detect you needs and deliver breaking intelligence to your email inbox.

Where do you get your oil and gas technology?

Without AppIntel AI would you try to get breaking oil and gas information from textbooks?

Honestly, the oil and gas intelligence you choose to ignore has a way of turning into nagging doubts—always wondering whether things will pan out or not. Why worry when you can just get informed using AppIntel AI.

AppIntel informs you when new and innovative oil and gas operations occur.

Where do you get your oil and gas technology?

Textbooks, simulations, rumour, salesmen: How do you keep up with oil and gas advances?

Textbooks – out of date

You could read textbooks and monographs.  However the scope of the industry is expanding so quickly that textbooks are quickly out of date.  Textbooks cannot make you a quick copy of the best successes of the basin.  Few textbooks capture the freshness of these best practices.

Textbooks only cover the basics. They are years behind industry advances.

AppIntel AI shows you their thinking behind the operations – even when you don’t get notified.

On the other hand, AppIntel AI includes industry submissions BEFORE field trials. It is the first place you can learn about new technology.   AppIntel will even send you an email when new technology is submitted to the government.

AppIntel AI is much more current than textbooks.

AppIntel AI

AI delivered content must be very trustworthy.  Oil industry puts lives at stake – there cannot be any doubt as to the trust of AI results.  The content must be trustworthy for tried and true conventional, facility, and pipeline technology as well as for new paradigms like SAGD and shale oil.

AppIntel AI is trained on over 3.7 million documents submitted by industry to government.

The content is vetted by a picky regulator.  The regulator is a very demanding adjudicator. They want all the technical details. They dig in and question everything.

Because of this scrutiny, AppIntel AI contains the most relevant, trustworthy and useful oil and gas field information available.

Simulations - not enough data

Running simulations might help. But a simulation predicts successful development. It won't tell you why your project is not working.

Simulations do not predict the unexpected. They only quantify what you already expect.

Simulations have a million dials to solve a grossly underspecified system.

Trusting a simulation run by an underexperienced puppeteer could end your career and company.

Unlike a simulation, AppIntel AI helps you understand all facets of an operation.

AppIntel AI is trained on over 3.7 million documents submitted by industry to government.

Gossip at the Petroleum Club – not reliable

Someone is always bragging at the Petroleum Club.  Number of wells, production rate, glory of any sort.  The exaggeration is only slight.

Listen close at the club, but you won’t hear any technical details – nothing reliable.

You won’t hear about any troubles or impediments in that venue.

AppIntel AI eliminates exaggeration and discloses all the advantages, warts and pimples of oil and gas technology.

Service companies – not technology agnostic

Salesman can share a wealth of technical information.  However, these technical disclosures are usually one-sided.  Their crowning achievement: record amount of proppant placed, or record amount of fluid pumped in a job. 

They won’t tell you what might go wrong.  They won’t disclose options outside their order sheet.

AppIntel AI contains options, benefits and detriments of oil and gas operations from a technology agnostic point of view.
