Geochemistry

Form An Improved Relationship With Your Reservoir Rock

Unleash the Power of Reservoir Rock Relations

Premier Corex geochemistry solutions help our clients gain more comprehensive knowledge of their rock and at what scale it changes. Using state-of-the-art technology our processes generate quantitative, accurate data that help establish the relationship between specific rock properties and better production.

Premier Corex geochemistry solutions enable improved well targeting, optimized or reduced frac stage locations, and better constrained volumetric calculations. We reduce superfluous sampling and expensive lab tests, lowering the cost of creating more accurate models and a better understanding of how layering may impact hydraulic fracturing, other completion activities, and production performance.

Key Results:

  • High resolution data from core samples

  • Chemostratigraphic zonation and correlation

  • Cluster analysis that breaks rock types into relevant groups

  • Elemental, mineralogical, and hydrocarbon logs

  • Recommendations for further analysis

  • Recommendations for well and completion design, including frac stage placement
