The Ora intelligent wireline formation testing platform builds on decades of innovation and leadership in reservoir pressure and fluid measurement. Its combination of new downhole hardware and software accomplishes dynamic reservoir characterization in all conditions, including in tight or unconsolidated formations and challenging fluids.
The digitally enabled hardware incorporates new architecture and metrology to automate complex workflows, reducing operating time by 50% while delivering the highest precision fluid analysis and zero-contamination samples.
Successful formation testing with the Ora platform begins with a robust simulation based on a customer’s asset performance objectives using the platform’s integrated intelligent planning, which can include simulation of hydrocarbon in place, connectivity, deliverability, and flow assurance.
Using the intelligent planning approach, hardware, data acquisition, and the data integration plan are optimized to ensure the best performance from the asset, confirming reserves faster, maximizing production, and speeding the completion strategy.
The Ora platform provides a new digital user experience, delivering actionable insights for real-time decision making. It is already helping customers prove previously inaccessible reserves.
In Mexico, the Ora platform was the first wireline formation tester to collect high-quality gas condensate samples in a challenging carbonate formation with permeability below 0.03 mD at 360 degF and 20,000-psi pressure. This helped Pemex announce the tripling of estimated reserves for Mexico’s most important land discovery in the last 25 years.
