The assortment of drilling fluid pumped down the well during drilling and completion can often cause damage to the surrounding formation by entering the reservoir rock and blocking the pore hole. Well stimulation is a well intervention process performed on an oil or gas well to increase production by improving the flow of hydrocarbons from the drainage area into the well bore.
Similarly, the act of perforating can have a similar effect by jetting debris into the perforation channels. Both these situations reduce the permeability in the near well bore area and so reduce the flow of fluids into the well bore. In many cases, the tunnels created by the perforation guns do not provide enough surface area and it becomes desirable to create more area in contact with the wellbore.
At Micro Smart Africa we have adopted world standards of carrying out well stimulation, such as:
- Formation Cleaning
- Perforation Extension
- Gas Lifting
An individual oil well usually produces at its maximum rate at the start of its life; the production rate eventually declines to a point at which it no longer produces profitable amounts, then it shows an increases in water production, and loss in completion fluid.
Production Enhancement optimizes reservoir production through chemical processes commonly known as hydraulic fracturing and acidizing. Fracturing (Frac jobs) involve creating a crack in a rock that contains oil or gas. The crack is then filled with sand or an artificial proppant to allow the free flow of oil or gas from the rock to the wellbore.
Micro-Smart Africa has proven to delivers the best production enhancement services
Well completion is the design, selection and installation of downhole equipments to connect the reservior to surface equipments for the production of hydrocarbons, and the specification of treatment and procedures necessary to bring the well into production and thereafter to produce in a manner which satisfies the customer’s objectives for the field development.
Oil production is not over when the well is drilled. Crews trained in completion can help a well start and continue to produce at a favorable rate. At Micro-Smart Africa, we have a well experienced and dedicated team that can enhance a safe and cost effective production with our vast completion knowledge.
We offer varieties of completion options, ranging from:
- Open hole completion
- Cased hole completion
- Openhole sand control
- And all production methods
