DESCRIPTION
Consistent economics in the Mississippi Lime is the number one objective for all Mississippi Lime operators. Operators need to drill wells with superior economics and they need to drill them more frequently - the question that remains then is, how? The inconsistency of Mississippi Lime well performance cannot be isolated to any one particular factor and the solution therefore, can only be arrived at through a thorough inter-disciplinary analysis of the key factors currently impacting the profitability of the play. It is critical to collate latest geological and production data to provide an enhanced understanding of the geological complexity and the play and more importantly, how these geological variations have played into completions design, water volumes, artificial lift selection, well design and sweet spot identification. The Mississippi Lime Congress 2014: Making It Work will provide practical solutions through an interdisciplinary approach looking at production optimization techniques, re-evaluating drilling and completion designs and re-assessing water management strategies.

Consistently economic results in the Mississippi Lime. That is the number one objective for
all Mississippi Lime operators. Despite shallow depths and optimum geochemical levels, the
economics of the wells are proving inconsistent. Operators have invested a lot of money in
this play - we know the geological potential is there - but the critical question going forward
is: how do we make this play work?
Operators need to drill wells with superior economics and they need to drill them more
consistently. The inconsistency of Mississippi Lime well results cannot be isolated to any
one particular factor and the solution therefore, can only be arrived at through a thorough
inter-disciplinary analysis of the key factors currently impacting the profitability of the
play. It is critical to collate latest geological and production data to provide an enhanced
understanding of the geological complexity and the play and more importantly, how these
geological variations have played into completions design, water volumes, artificial lift
selection, well design and sweet spot identification.
The Mississippi Lime Congress 2014: Making It Work will provide practical solutions
through an interdisciplinary approach looking at production optimization techniques,
re-valuating drilling and completion designs and re-assessing water management strategies.
The mission of the Mississippi Lime Congress 2014: Making It Work Congress is two fold...
• INCREASING PRODUCTION
• DECREASING COSTS
The Mississippi Lime Congress 2014: Making It Work has been designed to answer
some of crucial questions:
• Sweet Spot Identification: how can operator’s drill more of the better producing wells and less of the poor ones?
• Drilling & Completions: once the sweet spot has been located, is there a way to drill and complete the wells cheaper, more efficiently and more effectively than what is currently being done?
• Production: how can operator’s best lift these wells based on the geological characteristics in place to ensure pro-longed production to recover and exceed initial costs?
• Managing Operational Costs: is there a way to manage water more cost-efficiently to increase the economic margins per well?
This Is The Only Congress...
aDesigned specifically to answer the biggest question operators have right now: how can we make the economics of the Mississippi Lime wells more consistent and attain superior economics on every well drilled?
aLed by E&Ps focusing on the Mississippi Lime from a solutions-driven perspective. We are the only congress to take a multi-disciplinary approach to cracking the Mississippi Lime code. We will combine production and completions optimization with cost minimization (on water handling strategies)
aTargeted at understanding the geological drivers and production mechanisms for such inconsistent production results
aFocused on finding out how to increase production through production and completions optimization techniques
aLooking at how to optimize water disposal and transport strategies to significantly drive down operational costs
