Enhance understanding of reservoir processes

ResMap™ is a cost-effective means of developing a clear understanding of the subsurface processes occurring within the reservoir. Microseismic data can be correlated with production data and integrated into an existing geologic or reservoir model to provide a comprehensive tool for long-term reservoir management. Operators can validate existing models and establish a stronger baseline of information upon which to base decisions.

The ESG  FracMap™ Advantage

Advanced 2nd generation data processing

Traditional microseismic mapping services of well stimulations are typically limited to providing the event locations and delineating the dimensions of the treatment envelope. It is ESG’s philosophy that this level of analysis misses significant information that could be used by an operator to improve understanding of local/regional geology and in turn refine future development activities.

ESG’s permanent and temporary microseismic monitoring capabilities are well suited for monitoring intermediate-term CO2 and waste sequestration programs. ESG has extensive experience providing successful microseismic monitoring solutions for both waste and CO2 sequestration programs as well as CO2 EOR projects.

Any sequestration program must have some form of Monitoring, Measurement and Verification (MMV) in order to:

The Cold Lake Oilsands deposits lie in Northern Alberta, near the border of Saskatchewan. The bitumen is located about 450 meters from the surface in the Clearwater sands and is overlain by the Colorado Shale and Grand Rapids formations. The Cold Lake area is home to many oil producers, including 2 major companies, one of whom operates the one of the largest in-situ thermal recovery operations in the world.
