Integrated Operations (IO) have provided increased value to the oil industry in recent years and several fields have documented beneficial results from ongoing IO initiatives. Each field has various challenges related to optimising the field management, but there are also similarities. To clarify where the potential of increased values are, numerous field evaluations have been conducted. The background from more than 40 of field evaluations has lead to some interesting observations. This paper will describe the procedure in a field evaluation and how the key aspects are identified. Five central observations will be discussed in detail.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
