Abstract:
In this webinar, see how an integrated exploration workflow is being used to accelerate decision-making in one of the top emerging unconventional resource plays outside North America. This presentation takes a “deep dive” into critical early assessment of the Vaca Muerta formation in the Neuquén Basin of Argentina.
This discussion describes the application of the workflow to delineate resource distribution and critically compare prospective acreage in the Vaca Muerta formation, and details the various workflow components, which include stratigraphic characterization, geochemical assessments, regional screening and high-grading, along with resource volume and concentration estimates.
You will also see how workflow outputs are integrated to formulate an unconventional exploration model that generates high-graded stratigraphic domains within the Vaca Muerta formation, and how mechanical stratigraphy has a profound impact on resource concentration across the play.
