Shushufindi—Reawakening a Giant

摘要

In less than three years, a consortium led by Schlumherger has resuscitated the ailing giant Shushufindi oil field in Ecuador. The consortium's team assimilated what was known about the field and made recommendations to remedy problems and stimulate production. Soon after a contract was signed, the consortium was performing workovers, drilling new wells and continuously monitoring all field operations. As a result, oil production has increased by more than 60% over rates from three years ago.
