Joint Industry Project - DEA 119

  

An Improved Methodolgy to Predict Predrill Pore Pressure in Deepwater Gulf of Mexico

The goal of this project was to develop an improved methodology for pre-drill pore pressure prediction in deep water wells. 

The project began in early 1999 and the first phase was completed in April 2001. The project centered around the collection of data for more than 100 wells in the deep water Gulf of Mexico and the utilization of that data to develop and test new and improved models and methods.  Phase 2 was completed in February of 2004.

For more information on DEA 119 theory training information, DEA 119 best practice manuals, analyzed wells from the DEA 119 JIP or how to obtain a list of DEA 119 JIP participants, contact Knowledge Systems.

Upcoming Webinar : Velocity & Effective Stress Relationship

The webinar will examine the relationship between velocity and effective stress. We will discuss both how to obtain velocity data and the pitfalls to various methods, as well as show how pore pressure can be calculated once effective stress and overburden are known.  To register, click here.
