Mitigating flow to surface risk

Managing MOP by area

pressure gaugeSoon after the AER's announcement of their study and decision about flow to surface, this operator decided to increase maximum operation pressure. He discusses differing pressures in several risk zones.

The AER agrees. Surface heaves in steam operations are a given -- the AER doesn't seem concerned with that phenomenon. The regulator is more concerned about basal water sand pressure, formation expansion index. Now you can read how they restricted pressures using these measures. We found this through AppIntel.

Each AER application contains your neighbor's perspective on the exploitation of oil and gas formations. Applications contain more technical data even than SPE papers.
