Greenfield

Develop your new assets more efficiently

Fishbones branching technologies are highly attractive for greenfield developments, where field architecture, well design, and reservoir drainage strategies can be optimised from the outset. By incorporating branching technology during the planning phase, operators can maximize reservoir contact and recovery while minimizing the number of wells required to develop the field.

Maximizing value from every well

Unlike conventional wells that rely on a single borehole to access the reservoir, Fishbones technologies create multiple branches extending from the main wellbore, exposing a significantly larger rock volume. This increased reservoir contact enables each well to drain a larger area, improving productivity and reducing the need for additional producers and injectors.

In reservoirs with low permeability, layered geology, or uneven reservoir quality, Fishbones branches can directly access multiple productive intervals and establish flow paths that would otherwise require additional wells or costly stimulation treatments. The result is improved reservoir connectivity, enhanced recovery, and greater flexibility in field development planning.

For offshore and onshore greenfield projects alike, reducing well count can have a substantial impact on project economics. Fewer wells translate into lower drilling and completion costs, reduced infrastructure requirements, and a smaller environmental footprint. By increasing production and injection capacity on a per-well basis, Fishbones technologies help operators maximize the value of their capital investments.

The technology is equally applicable in conventional oil and gas developments, geothermal projects, and mineral extraction wells. By increasing reservoir exposure from the first day of production, Fishbones Branching technologies provide operators with a powerful tool to improve recovery, accelerate field development, and enhance overall project returns.
