Go to Technologies and innovations Technological challenges and priorities in oil and gas exploration and production

Availability of best exploration and production technologies is a pass to future. New technology is a key to remaining resources of mature fields. Technological Strategy of A-Energy includes all perspective oil production areas from exploration to development management and is strictly bound to strategic goals of the Company and to real business opportunities.

Technological priorities in exploration and production are determined taking into account the need to achieve the strategic goals of the company. Strategic objectives face a number of problems:

  • reduction of production volumes at mature fields;
  • increase of new (more complex) fields share in the production profile:
    • unconventional reserves;
    • carbonate and fractured reservoirs;
    • under-gas-cap zones.
