| Cutting a core from a reservoir is the most direct way to determine reservoir properties and to provide accurate input for a geological model. In our laboratories we offer services that are relevant for both exploration and production phase. PanTerra has four lab departments: |
1. Conventional Core Analysis
In oil and gas exploration, fast and accurate data is often needed to make operational decisions. In our Conventional Core Analysis department we have the capacity to quickly measure various rock properties on large amounts of samples. This data is subsequently used for reservoir characterization and petrophysical calibration. ...more |
2. Special Core Analysis
On selected samples, a special core analysis program can be performed in order to obtain parameters for log calibration (e.g. electrical properties m & n), and to make a prediction of flow potential and saturation distributions (capillary pressure, wettability). All the above parameters are required for of hydrocarbon reserve estimates. ...more |

3. Production Chemistry
Throughout the lifecycle of a well, damage often occurs due to the oil and gas production process and other well activities. Production enhancement testing is used to determine the causes of the damage and to evaluate the possible solutions in order to maximize the production from a reservoir. Important information about the characteristics of oil and gas reservoirs can be provided by various analytical techniques. For this purpose we offer a broad range of services for the identification and quantification of fluid and solid materials. ...more |

4. PVT Analysis
Our new PVT laboratory, commissioned in December 2006, is equiped with the latest state-of-the-art mercury-free equipment. A full suite of PVT services is available for studies on black oils, volatile oils, gases and condensates. ...more |
