Petrophysics Consultants

Syntillica offers expert petrophysical analysis for exploration, appraisal and development wells including desktop studies, reviews and real-time interpretation. 

  Interpretation of petrophysical data can have a profound impact on the volume of hydrocarbons in place and a thorough understanding of the logs is vital. Not only individual log interpretations but the combination of multiple logs in the context of reservoir type (e.g. clastic/carbonate) requires experience and a rigorous approach.

Syntillica can provide individual interpretations to correlation and analysis of log data which can be built into an audited database of wells. This can be combined with other subsurface data from geophysics, geology and geomechanics to models useful for dynamic modelling and drilling.

A sample of the professionals who create capabilities.
