PROJECTS & CASE STUDIES
JJM Consultancy personnel have contributed to a wide range of well engineering projects including drilling, well integrity management and well decommissioning across oil, gas and emerging energy storage developments. Our experience spans the full lifecycle of wells, from concept and design through to operations, integrity management and plug and abandonment. The projects and case studies below highlight representative examples of the professional experience of JJM personnel across Australia and internationally, including work undertaken throughout their careers both within JJM Consultancy and in previous roles within the industry.
Artificial Lift Installation for Gas Well Liquid Loading
JJM personnel were providing asset support in the form of production optimisation and reservoir surveillance for an operator. Routine well monitoring including the running of SGS and modelling of tubing inflow performance identified that liquid loading due to reduced reservoir pressures and increased condensate production would result in substantially reduced estimated ultlimate recover of gas from the well.
Low-Permeability Sandstone Reservoir Stimulation Program
A multi discipline sub surface opportunity review of an operators field area was completed by JJM personnel.
The review and identified additional production optimisation and well stimulation techniques that could be applied to an existing play of low permeability sandstone reservoir.
Surface-to-Inseam Gas Drainage Program for Longwall Mining
Due to high virgin methane content in a future long wall mining location, a coal mining company had a requirement to accelerate mine gas drainage operations beyond their usual underground drilling program with the use of oil and gas style directional drilling technology. The application of “surface to inseam” drilling enabled accelerated gas drainage of the long wall panel area ahead of mine development activities.
