As it becomes increasingly harder to economically exploit existing reservoirs…

…operators must learn from their mistakes fast to reduce the cost of completions and gain higher return on investment.

2nd in the annual series, the Tight Oil Eagle Ford Congress 2012 is designed to provide the most recent case studies where E&Ps in the Eagle Ford have achieved expected IP and EURs by optimizing hydraulic fracturing techniques. It will bring VPs, Directors and senior technical experts to share commercial benefits of using cutting edge completions and petrophysical tools as well as scrutinize their long-term effects on production.

Leading Eagle Ford operators will be analyzing:

WELL SPACING/STAGES:Determining the optimal well and fracture spacing strategies in the Eagle Ford to maximizedrainage and reservoir coverage without interference or overspending

FRAC RECIPE: Analyzing proppants and fracture fluids in relation to volumes and concentration to develop a recipe for maximizing reservoir conductivity

COMPLETIONS TECHNOLOGIES: Comparingcost and performance of specific completions tools that have proven to be the most effective in the Eagle Ford

GEOSTEERING : Improving geosteering, analyzing natural fracture systems and calculating the optimum well placement to optimize production in the Eagle Ford

WELL PERFORMANCE:Providing results of surveillanceand pressure tests to determine well performance in the Eagle Ford and methods toextend the production cycle

RESERVOIR CHARACTERIZATION : Presenting a cost-benefitanalysis of the most innovativegeological and petrophysical tools used to help identify sweet spots in the Eagle Ford
