WELCOME TO URTeC 2020 – LETTER FROM THE CO-CHAIRSDear Colleagues,

That we’re leading with concerns about an ongoing pandemic and perhaps the most difficult times in our industry’s history is disheartening. Our thoughts are with you, your families, and our friends who have been impacted, either directly or indirectly, by these circumstances.

We don’t know what a ‘new normal’ will look like or how the energy business will change in the coming months.

What we can say is that business and social connectivity is particularly important during difficult times and that we expect URTeC to remain valuable to you and your business. Even in these uncertain times, we’re glad you’ve chosen URTeC 2020 Online – it is the best opportunity you’ll have to exchange information, formulate strategic ideas, and solve problems to manage and optimize your unconventional resource plays.

It is our distinct pleasure to welcome and thank you for attending URTeC 2020 Online, on behalf of the URTeC Sponsoring and Endorsing Organizations and our Technical Program Committee. This effort began with a record number of 928 abstracts being submitted for consideration. As a result, featured are more than 250 technical papers focused on collaboration and integration between the subsurface G&G disciplines, geomechanics, formation evaluation, wellhead design, completion design, enhanced recovery, and production forecasting. URTeC is a forum where pros engaged in all aspects of the E&P lifecycle come together to innovate, integrate, and advance understanding to create value. In addition to the many technical sessions, other significant events are also planned such as:

• The Opening Plenary Session where leaders of our industry will discuss current affairs and impact on our energy future;• The Operators’ Forum where operating companies will present solutions to challenging issues;• Special Sessions from ARMA (American Rock Mechanics Association) addressing geomechanics in modern completions

and well construction and the SPWLA (Society of Petrophysicists and Well Log Analysts) session highlighting the latest in unconventional petrophysics;

• Panel discussions addressing emerging technology, artificial intelligence, sustainable development, induced seismicity, well integrity, and what can make shale plays successful.

The online exhibition is backed by more than 45 companies with the latest in technology to help you safely produce more for less with an eye to environmental stewardship. The U-Pitch Technology Showcase will also be continued, with speakers continuing their pitches online.

Despite the seemingly overwhelming challenges, we are all committed to continue advancing the technology that has unlocked the exploitation of these important resources over the last decade. We will persevere and overcome these new challenges with the contributions that will be shared at URTeC this year. The technologies developed today to explore and exploit unconventional resources will continue to define the hydrocarbon extraction industry of tomorrow.

Please stay safe and we hope you enjoy the conference online – from anywhere, at any time, from any device.

MONDAY HIGHLIGHTSOPENING PLENARY SESSION

Unconventionals 2020: Restructured Global Finance and Geopolitics Merge with a Focus on Environmental, Social, and Governance Issues

RHODES VALLEAU

Time: 8:30 am–10:30 amModerators: Skip Rhodes, Senior Director,

Emerging Technology, Pioneer Natural Resources and Doug Valleau, President, Strategia Innovation and Technology Advisors

Production from U.S. based conventional plays has altered the global hydrocarbon marketplace and shifted the strategic geopolitical impact of oil supply and demand. The U.S., once a net importer, is now a net exporter of oil with production exceeding 12.9 MMBoe per day. This level of domestic production insulates the U.S. from many global supply disruptions. Similarly, advances in exploration, drilling, completions, and production are now exported helping to further advance the global energy landscape. Shale 1.0 established unconventional resources as a commercial venture and utilized a drill-to-hold strategy resulted in significant acreage position by many companies. Shale 2.0 gave us pad-development, and lean manufacturing yielding significant volumes of hydrocarbons at acceptable costs from both operators and the service sector. The year 2020 brings with it another step change for our industry. Shale 3.0 opened with a renewed corporate attention to delivering value and free-cash flow from operations as a strategic driver. That focus rapidly morphed into a shareholder expectation for substantive returns at levels not previously shared by the fossil energy sector. Shale 3.0 recognizes that the Tier 1 resources that brought on the shale revolution now must be managed as late-life field optimizations. Such optimization demands a level of data fidelity, analytic wisdom, and innovation not previously commonplace in our industry. Capital efficiency accompanied by free cash flow has become a highly embraced goal for everyone regardless if the “shop floor” is in the field or at main office. Following on from free-cash flow, the expectation of shareholder return has replaced the previous tendency to chase production volumes and reserve additions. A broadly based shareholder movement together with the energy transition community reminded the industry that we must do more to mitigate the harmful aspects of our environmental footprint. Now, more broadly bundled into a matrix of obligations and challenges, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) topics have matched the importance of late-life field optimization, parent-child enigmas, and the multi-disciplinary puzzle of capital efficiency. Compounding that challenge is awareness that global economies are slowing and demand is softening yielding both uncertainty and depressed commodity pricing. The challenges for 2020 require that we pay more than passive attention to issues like flaring; water use and disposal; methane and volatile organic compounds emissions; carbon capture; and clean fuel advancement. Our plenary panel of speakers has been asked to share their insights on one or more of the issues that exist for Shale 3.0 and perhaps how technology and social responsibility can be scaled into a sustainable business case by the close of 2020.

New Technologies Funding and Commercialization Time: 10:45 am–12:05 pm Moderators: Susan Nash, Director of Innovation and

Emerging Science/Technology, AAPG

A brief profile of methods of funding, supporting, and commercializing new technologies. Which ones are being invested in, and why?

With the “double black swan” events of 2020 (global pandemic, plus price collapse), priorities have shifted away from projects that will have long-term payouts, to those that will result in more short-term cost savings as well as revenue flows. Sometimes this means pivoting in ways that were never envisioned before, such as repurposing equipment for oil storage. In other situations, it means looking at one’s capabilities and finding out what investment might be needed to pivot into a different industry. For example, investment might be made to repurpose equipment and capabilities to help the production of disinfectants and transportation for industries such as health and food supply chain, where it is urgently needed. Our panelists discuss investment in the new double black swan world, and they share their experience and successes.

MONDAY AFTERNOON TOPICALS

Time: 12:35 pm–1:20 pm

Private Equity in International Unconventional AssetsAshley Zumwalt-Forbes, President, Black Mountain and Samantha Richardson, Vice President, Commercial and Operations, Black Mountain

At current domestic acreage prices and economics, early movers are looking beyond the U.S. border for emerging unconventional opportunities.

Application of PVT and Petroleum Geochemical Analyses to Enhanced Oil Recovery in Resource Plays Dr. John B. Curtis, Rocky Mountain Manager,

GeoMark Research, Ltd.

Oil extraction techniques are estimated to recover just 5–7% of in-place oil using today’s technology. In response, a number of Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) techniques are being considered to boost this percentage and improve ultimate recoveries. One of the

most promising techniques is “Huff and Puff” cyclic gas injection.

In the Huff and Puff technique, separator gas from a nearby well or gas installation is injected (the Huff phase) into a depleted or partially depleted oil well, ideally at a high enough pressure to achieve miscibility. During the following soak period the miscible gas spreads through the formation, swelling the oil volume and decreasing its viscosity. After the soaking period, the well is put back on production (the Puff phase) with an expected increase in production rate due to the higher reservoir pressure and lower oil viscosity. The separated gas can then be sold or reinjected into another well to initiate a new Huff and Puff sequence. This process can be repeated as long as commercial quantities of liquids are extracted from each Huff and Puff cycle.

Because of the regional consistency of fluid properties in many shale plays, it is possible to predict regional trends in phase behavior once a calibration is established. We accomplish this by developing a database of PVT and geochemical measurements and mapping these trends across the plays. This illustrated work serves as a guideline for the selection and analysis of gas and oil samples and assists in the application of the results in a regional framework.

Analytical objectives are focused on miscibility testing – both “first-contact” through swelling tests and “multi-contact” via slim tube studies. Representative recombined reservoir fluids and corresponding injection gases are collected from the field, or prepared in the laboratory, and run through an established laboratory program. Fluid compositions, densities, and viscosities are measured frequently and used in reservoir simulation models to evaluate the effectiveness of the Huff and Puff process.

MONDAY AFTERNOON PANELS

Technology Adoption: Experiences from the FieldTime: 1:45 pm–3:05 pmModerator: Susan Nash, Director of Innovation and

Emerging Science/Technology, AAPG

How to foster and nurse new ideas for highest impact. What’s the best way to try out a new technology or a technique in the field? What are some lessons learned? What kinds of technologies have the most “quick-impact”?

Some of the high-impact technologies in 2019 no longer have the same economic punch. At the same time, some of the overlooked or low-impact technologies now are extremely useful, even transformative. For example, some of the smart operations that were used for monitoring geosteering and also completions can be used to plan the completions of wells in the future. In addition, with the new price environment, technologies that can result in cost reductions and well performance improvements have become more important than ever, particularly when they are coupled with geological and geochemical data that can result in a significant positive impact. As we discuss positive impact, we must also take a look at the potential negative impacts, and identify the techniques, work flows, and technologies that worked in the past that may have disastrous outcomes now.

Data Analytics and Physics-Informed Models: The Next Generation Takes Shape

Time: 3:25 pm–5:10 pmModerator: Alejandro Lerza, Senior Reservoir Engineer, Chevron

In recent years a substantial debate has developed between predictive machine learning models versus theoretically-correct physics models. Out of this debate has arisen a phenomena known

as a physics-informed predictive model. A number of researchers in this field are claiming that this type of model seems to have adopted the best of both worlds. This panel will describe this kind of model, its benefits, typical pitfalls, and give examples of the latest case studies.

Domain experts are more important than ever as machine learning algorithms are being pushed to the limit, particularly for quantifying model uncertainty and risk assessment. Decisions can be made on the basis of a predictive model, but those decisions can be deeply flawed if data accuracy and physics representation aspects were not considered. We will discuss the key considerations in today’s decision-making environment, particularly in a situation where there is likely to be large-scale changes in ownership, and the new operators of fields will be under pressure to develop data-driven models that are both reliable and quickly modified. Tactics for data managing and feature engineering, as well as identifying key pitfalls in developing the algorithms, and deciding which algorithms to employ will be discussed.

TUESDAY MORNING TOPICALS

Time: 8:00 am–8:40 am

Less Could be More! Water Saturation in Liquid-rich Unconventional Reservoirs: Implications for Well Spacing and Recovery

Andrew Pepper, Director, Petroleum Systems LLC

New and independent methods of saturation measurement are showing that water saturations in these reservoirs are significantly higher than measured by the methods employed over the last decade.

Given that recoverable reserves are defined by decline curve analysis, lower in-place volumes mean that recovery factors – previously estimated as low as 3-5% – are significantly higher than previously thought. Arguably, the down spacing in many plays is being driven by this false perception of high oil in place and low primary recovery factors. Daughter wells generally perform poorly compared to the parent wells, and there is evidence from reservoir simulation that the parent wells will access the reserves anyway.

So, we may be drilling infills for rate; not recovery. Could less infill drilling and lower up-front capex be the key to more profitability?

Inspiring Decisions at the Speed of ThoughtJonathan Garrett, Managing Director, RS Energy Group (Now Part of Enverus)

RS Energy Group (Now Part of Enverus) will reveal an exclusive glimpse into the power of predictive analytics and how you can answer the “what if” questions ahead of any planning, drilling activity, or acquisition. RSEG managing director, Jonathan

Garrett, will explore powerful workflows built from dynamic data science and predictive models, allowing the industry to analyze critical variables to predict outcomes, optimize value, and identify opportunity.

Are We Effectively Draining from the SRV?Faye Liu, Founder and CEO, RevoChem LLC

In the past decade, the industry has made tremendous efforts in the understanding and unraveling of the Stimulated Rock Volume (SRV) generated by hydraulic fracturing application. However, questions still remain regarding the bottom-line uncertainties as to where the hydrocarbons are physically drained or contributed

from (i.e., DRV, Drainage Rock Volume). In addition, how does the then-defined drainage change through the production life cycle, and are infill wells in drainage communication? Information from the thousands of naturally occurring compounds in the produced oils holds the key to answer these crucial questions for the oil and gas industry.

TUESDAY MORNING PANELS

Hydraulic Fracturing and Its Effects on Well IntegrityTime: 9:00 am–10:45 amModerator: Amit Singh, Ph.D, Senior Advisor for Well Stimulation Technologies, Chevron

Well Integrity continues to be a hot topic in unconventionals. This is the second year this panel has been given at URTeC. It was also given at the Hydraulic Fracture Technology Conference (HFTC) in

the Woodlands, Texas. This year we bring new discussions to the table, including reservoir effects due to changing geological conditions.

With more years of experience operating in a harsh economic environment, where there has been pressure to do more with less, the risk of compromised well integrity during hydraulic fracturing is always a concern. We will discuss how completion designs are not only impacted by original stress states, but also by sudden and dramatic cuts in CAPEX, and when there are mass layoffs, furloughs, and an exodus of experienced geoscientists and engineers. We will take a close look at the persistent and pervasive problems that occur in virtually all laterals, and discuss the traditional approaches to them, as well as how things have changed in the compressed, price-constrained environment, and where there have been surprising breakthroughs and innovative approaches to maintaining well integrity during hydraulic fracturing.

TUESDAY AFTERNOON TOPICALS

Time: 12:35 pm–1:25 pm

State of Unconventionals — Geoscience and Engineering Aspects

Tom Blasingame, Professor, Texas A&M University, SPE President 2020-2021

This presentation provides a “State of Unconventionals” from the perspective of geoscience and engineering technologies that have evolved and enabled the development of unconventional reservoirs. This will include discussions regarding technology and economic

“triggers,” as well as timelines. The presentation will focus on current needs as well — e.g., well spacing, well placement, fracture-directed interactions (“frac-hits”), reservoir and production engineering tools/needs, and the role of geology and reservoir fluids. The goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of the state of technology for unconventional reservoirs, but in a language and format suitable to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Anadarko “Super” Basin: Eight Key Characteristics to Understand Productivity

Richard Fritz, AAPG President 2020-2021

Twenty-five basins worldwide are identified as “Super Basins,” defined as a basin containing multiple reservoirs and source rocks with cumulative production of at least 5 BBOE and future production potential of more than 5 BBOE. By this definition the Anadarko Basin is a Super Basin as it has produced close to 50 BBOE from

multiple Paleozoic reservoirs. There are at least eight unique geoscience elements that contribute to oil and gas productivity in the Anadarko Basin. The most important are its source rocks, especially the dominant Woodford shale estimated to have generated and expelled more than 300 BBOE since Mississippian time. Second, the initiation of the basin along the abandoned arm of a failed rift resulted in 40,000 ft. of Paleozoic sediment with multiple reservoirs. Based on the burial history and lack of significant inversion Anadarko Basin source rocks are mostly in the mature window. Other key elements are the left-lateral, north–south basement strike-slip fault system that provides strong facture overprint and multiple migration pathways into good local and regional seals to develop multiple trap styles. The basin has an overall positive paragenetic history that allows for good reservoir development, and multiple overpressured cells assist in well performance. As a result, the Anadarko Basin has a copious conventional and evolving non-conventional production history.

This study encompasses the “Greater Anadarko Basin” which includes western Oklahoma, western Kansas, southeastern Colorado, and the Texas Panhandle. This area contains 46 giant oil fields defined by AAPG by a minimum of 100 MMBOE of cumulative production. This includes the Oklahoma City and Panhandle fields plus the giant Hugoton embayment complex. According to IHS, conventional cumulative production is at least ~15 MMBO and 170 TCFG. More than 50% of the total oil production is from Penn–Permian age rocks although as much as 24% is from the Cambro–Ordovician. Gas production is dominated by the Permian with more than 44% of total and the Pennsylvanian Morrowan–Desmoinesian account for 24% of total.

The next 50 BBOE of production will most likely be with horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. The Carboniferous to Devonian sections in the Anadarko Basin contain prime reservoirs for resource plays, particularly in Hunton carbonates, Woodford Shale, Mississippian Osage chert/Meramec shale, plus multiple Pennsylvanian clastics and carbonates. Several mature resource plays are in the early stage of density production drilling—the Woodford Shale in SCOOP, the Meramec shale in STACK proper, Pennsylvanian granite wash in front of the Wichita Uplift, and significant areas of Mississippi “lime” in northern Oklahoma. In addition, there is significant gas potential in Pennsylvanian sandstones and the Woodford Shale, especially in the deeper portions of the basin.

Another item that makes a “Super Basin” is accessibility. The Anadarko Basin has proven above-ground conditions that contribute to realizing its full resource potential. One of the top conditions is excellent infrastructure with multiple pipelines, close connectivity to the Cushing oil complex, and active vendors. In addition, the states within the greater Anadarko Basin have petroleum-friendly political establishment at state, county and local levels along sensible state laws and commission rules to encourage resource development.

Technological development and access is another key aspect of the Anadarko Basin. Due to a more-than 100 years of activity most of the key technological advances were tested in the basin from rotary drilling to reflection seismic.

With the growth of alternative sources of energy, oilfield technologies and know-how can help decrease the learning curve and expedite development to address environmental and sustainability related challenges.

In today’s price environment for oil and gas, which exists in a time of increasing local demand for electricity, but a lack of CAPEX for the construction of large-scale transmission lines, opportunities exist in places that may have not been considered before. This panel will discuss the new constraints and opportunities for geothermal and discuss how to re-assess and rank both the geothermal resources themselves and the technologies. There will also be a discussion of markets, and how to achieve economies of scale using technologies for optimization, and also with new financial instruments or arrangements with utilities.

Reservoir Characterization and Surveillance DiagnosticsTime: 9:00 am–10:45 amModerator: Johannes Alvarez, Reservoir Engineer - Tight Rock and Unconventional Resources at Chevron

Having a good reservoir understanding has always been key for decision makers to yield the highest value from their operations. However, in time of pandemic and oil price collapse, reservoir

characterization and surveillance take on a new significance as a decision making tool, when individuals are working from home and teams have been gutted by furloughs and layoffs, but still complex decisions about reservoir optimization, production, and transportation have to be made. We will discuss the value perceived by operators from reservoir characterization and surveillance data sources, as well which of them is considered more meaningful in today’s environment, and how to assure data integrity.

WEDNESDAY HIGHLIGHTS

Special Session: Challenge and Opportunities of Unconventional Oil and Gas Development in Asia PacificTime: 11:00 am–12:05 pm and 1:45 pm–3:30 pmSession Chair: Bin Yuan, China University of Petroleum (East China)

The whole world is looking into the upside potential for unconventional oil and gas. However, the regional challenges are varying by region and not clear or being tested, the technologies gaining money in North America may not work for other regions, such as Asia Pacific. In other hands, in the regions in Asia Pacific, new outstanding technologies earning money or successful practices of integrated geoscience and engineering were not advertised well to the industry in North America. This special invited session aims to advertise the emerging regions coupled with regional focus as unconventional geology, geochemistry, hydraulic fracturing, enhanced oil recovery, economics and politics that may not be a macro/global level, and show how the unconventional resources are developing in Asia Pacific.

This invited session will give 8 presentations of regional characteristics and success from a global perspective, including, 6 talks (see the below acceptance of invited talks) with focus on unconventional resources in China; 1 talk specific to the development of unconventional oil in Russia (the speaker are still inviting, not determined yet); 1 talk with another focus on Australian unconventional oil and gas development (the speaker are still inviting, not determined yet).

We believe that this invited special session will attract not only the attention of local attendees but also more involvement of international professionals and industry pioneers.

WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON TOPICALS

Time: 12:35 pm–1:25 pm

Unlocking Value in the Powder River Basin Tope Ogunyomi, Director, Juniper Capital

The Powder River Basin (PRB) is primarily located in southwestern Montana and northeastern Wyoming. The PRB consists of several oil rich stacked targets with attractive full cycle economics. Reservoir targets include a combination of conventional (Frontier, Turner, Parkman, etc.) and unconventional resource (Niobrara and

Mowry) plays. Due to the on-going successful delineation of the various reservoirs across the basin, operators such as Devon and EOG are beginning to transition to early stage multi-bench development. Applying industry best practices while incorporating basin specific solutions can unlock substantial value in the basin.

Oilfield Services: Lessons Learned from the Past Decade and Survival Strategies in the New Decade

CORE WORKSHOP SERIES

BEST OF URTEC 2019 TECHNICAL PAPER AWARD WINNERS

From Slope to Basin - An Unconventional Core Workshop Series Focusing on the Variety of Gravity Flow Deposits throughout the Permian BasinAAPG and Devon have partnered with research groups of the UT-Austin Bureau of Economic Geology to provide virtual Permian Basin core workshops to the URTeC audience. Recordings of these virtual workshops will air during the breaks between live URTeC technical sessions. They will also be available on demand following the meeting.

Whole core from both the Delaware and Midland basins will be examined to understand the changes in slope deposits from confined to unconfined settings. We will examine a variety of gravity flow deposits within the basins and the processes from which they were deposited. The ultimate goal of this series of workshops is to understand how these deposits impact reservoir quality in the basins.

The selection of cores from the Delaware Basin will contrast rock deposits in confined slope, unconfined toe-of-slope, and basin-floor environments. We will examine several cores that provide examples of both carbonate and siliciclastic deposits of the Wolfcamp A (Leonardian), 2nd and 3rd Bone Spring, and Avalon plays. We interpret depositional elements including channelized debris-flow deposits, grainy confined slope fans, and unconfined basin-floor fan off-axis to fringe deposits. When placed within a larger depositional framework, these cores provide an anchor point for explaining the proximal to distal facies transition within the Delaware Basin’s Permian mixed-system.

Cores in the Midland Basin will focus on the Spraberry Formation. These cores will show three main facies types: turbidites, hybrid-event beds (HEBs), and a parallel laminated siltstone facies. The main point of discussion will center around the origin of the enigmatic laminated facies and its relation to the turbidites and HEBs. Preliminary observations suggest that some laminated intervals can be correlated across a distance of >1.3 km, with a high certainty, at a lamina-by-lamina scale. This is consistent with the idea of settling of fine-grained sediment from density currents that are not hugging the bottom but spread out along a pycnocline or suspension fall-out of aeolian dust. The fine-scale correlatability of the laminated facies also suggests the potential for robust long-distance correlations in similar settings.

Cores from both the Midland and Delaware basins can be applied as analogs for strata of different ages and in other deep-water basins with similarly interpreted depositional environments.

We are grateful for logistical assistance from UT-Austin BEG Core Research Center Manager Nate Ivicic and his team.
