Trajectory planning, completions and stimulation programs aligned with each formation's subsurface conditions. Material selection and fluid systems are specified for each well before spud.
Integrated subsurface modeling, iterative design cycles and pre-spud validation aligned with drilling and stimulation constraints.
Batch drilling across the Diyab, Huwaila and Falaha formations with autonomous directional control via DrillOps. Each successive pad generates operational data that feeds directly into design parameters for the next campaign.
Nine rigs operating in parallel with standardized parameters and cross-pad performance benchmarking, accelerating optimization across successive well pads.
Advanced horizontal drilling techniques extending the reservoir contact across the Diyab, Huwaila and Falaha formations.
Long-reach lateral placement with directional control optimization and friction management across extended well paths.
Wellbore preparation and intervention activities designed to prepare each well for stimulation operations across the Diyab, Huwaila and Falaha formations. This phase includes critical readiness activities that support efficient hydraulic fracturing execution and help establish the conditions for consistent performance across the development program.
Completion architecture defined by staged isolation, sour-service material selection and extended lateral requirements within a high-pressure, high-temperature reservoir envelope.
Two stimulation fleets executing high efficiency multi-stage hydraulic fracturing programs. Fleet architecture incorporates SLB technologies including StimOps ™, FracCAT-X™ and StimCommander™ for automated delivery and real-time treatment monitoring, alongside PumpIRIS™ for fleet automation and idle-state management. Zipper Frac operations improve efficiency by reducing transition time between wells and maximizing stimulation fleet utilization.
Drilling-to-stimulation transitions managed as a single operational sequence, removing interface gaps between drilling, completions and stimulation phases.
Post-completion coiled tubing intervention in high-pressure sour wells. Intervention workflows validated through the 2026 SPE/ICoTA paper.
Wellbore conditioning and integrity verification enabling the transition from a completed well to a production-ready asset under sour-service constraints.
Post-stimulation flowback and surface testing in high-pressure, high-temperature sour wells. Wells are conditioned, characterized and prepared for handover to production under sour-service constraints.
Pressure data and effluent characterization captured during testing inform completion adjustments across the active program.
Proppant sourced from UAE-based suppliers within haul distance of the Al Dhafra field. Domestic sourcing reduces transit logistics and the landed cost per ton across the active stimulation program.
Replenishment cycles are aligned with fleet pumping rates and integrated with stimulation scheduling under one logistics framework.
Surface infrastructure supports early production handling during flowback and well testing, enabling continuous production flow from initial well delivery. Fully integrated with field operations, this setup sustains uninterrupted flow and accelerates long-term production readiness.
Efficient operations across the Al Dhafra unconventional development are enabled through close collaboration with in-country infrastructure, integrating sand management and water logistics within a single field operations framework. Sand storage, water transfer, and produced fluid handling are seamlessly coordinated with drilling and stimulation campaigns.
HSE spans every phase of unconventional operations. Engineered barriers, real-time monitoring and disciplined field practices across the entire workflow. Turnwell leverages partners' experience to deliver best in class HSE performance in unconventional resources.
