AbstractAn integrated study on a cluster of 23 fields in South Oman was performed in the Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) Study Center, in order to derive a coherent view on the cluster development as well as to write (waterflood) FPDs for the individual fields. The study combined conventional and stateof-the-art workflows and was conducted by a large integrated team over a period of three years. The study was conducted in four phases: screening, full field modelling, infra-structure development and FDPs for the 6 large fields and the writing of appraisal / development plans for the remaining 17 fields. This paper describes the workflow and learnings of the study.
