Removing production restrictions for tight oil wells

This applicant's struggle illustrates the trouble many operators are having convincing the regulator to grant them unrestricted production rates for horizontal wells in tight reservoirs. In an effort to convince the regulator, he even submitted his seismic interpretation. But his application was still refused. You can find his application and his seismic using AppIntel.

It's true that the AER grants generous rate limits to horizontal wells. However the associated gas produced from wells in very tight formations rises quickly. Increased gas-oil ratios rapidly bring penalties that reduce the maximum oil rate allowed from these wells.

Proven Reserves knows just the right argument must be used to take off the restrictions. But this applicant didn't use that argument and he still has restrictions.

Would you like to see what other operators in your areas are thinking about seismic, multifractured wells, net pay maps and recovery? AppIntel can help.
