Angola – one of many greatest oil and gasoline producers in Africa – depends on revolutionary drilling options to maintain manufacturing above a million barrels per day. Nicely integrity is essential to reduce losses and optimize output because the nation incentivizes exploration throughout its onshore and offshore acreage.
Throughout the Angola Oil&Fuel (AOG) pre-conference technical program – happening forward of the primary occasion on October 1 – oilfield providers firm KAESO Vitality Providers will lead a workshop titled Sustaining Nicely Integrity to Decrease Monetary Losses: A Mechanical Answer-Primarily based Strategy. The corporate’s Basic Supervisor Jorge de Morais and Technical&HSE Advisor Landry Pouna will conduct the session, exploring the importance of effectively integrity and mechanical options to mitigate dangers and stop monetary setbacks.
AOG is the most important oil and gasoline occasion in Angola. Going down with the complete assist of the Ministry of Mineral Assets, Oil and Fuel; nationwide oil firm Sonangol; the Nationwide Oil, Fuel and Biofuels Company; the African Vitality Chamber; and the Petroleum Derivatives Regulatory Institute, the occasion is a platform to signal offers and advance Angola’s oil and gasoline trade. To sponsor or take part as a delegate, please contact sales@energycapitalpower.com.
Angola presently has over 40 concessions in operation, together with 16 below manufacturing, 27 below exploration and 4 below growth. The nation has additionally opened 29 block alternatives for funding whereas negotiating phrases for corporations that certified below the 2023 bid spherical – a 12-block tender which concluded in January 2024. This 12 months, Angola anticipates 43 wells to be spud as a part of ongoing upstream campaigns. To go with new campaigns, the federal government is instituting an incremental manufacturing initiative which goals to incentivize near-field exploration in Angola. The primary effectively of this initiative – the Likembe-01 effectively within the ExxonMobil-operated Block 15 – uncovered hydrocarbons in Might 2024.
Going ahead, drill campaigns kicking off in each confirmed performs such because the offshore Decrease Congo and Kwanza basins, in addition to frontier basins such the onshore and shallow water Namibe and Benguela basins would require technological innovation to maximise manufacturing whereas lowering prices and environmental impression.
In alignment with the AOG 2024 theme – Driving Exploration and Growth In direction of Elevated Manufacturing in Angola – the KAESO Vitality Providers workshop will present important information for professionals aiming to boost effectively integrity and operational effectivity. The session helps the trade’s purpose of maximizing useful resource restoration and guaranteeing sustainable manufacturing practices and might be of profit for drilling managers, completion managers, reservoir managers, effectively structure groups and extra.
Individuals will develop their information of mechanical options for sustaining effectively integrity, specializing in threat discount and monetary loss prevention. Key matters embody gas-tight sealing capabilities, mechanical integrity and operational optimization to keep away from pricey remedial cementing operations. Moreover, the workshop will current an summary of proposed options, evaluating and contrasting completely different approaches with supporting examples. Attendees will achieve insights into the mechanics, implementation steps, challenges and limitations related to these options.
