Description
Summary:Bouchet et al. describe key elements in a multi-technology application to update development of a deepwater field first initiated in 1998. The critical reservoir model needed to plan optimum development of this major field with an estimated 1.5 billion bbl oil-in-place was built and updated by 4D seismic, downhole measurements, tracer injection, production logging and other technologies.
