Notional Field Development Final Report - EBN

EBN Notional Field Development Plan
3.3.3 Summary and Recommendations
It is concluded from these results that both permeability and lateral length have a significant impact on
cumulative production. An increase in formation permeability by a factor of 10 will generate a 98%
increase in production while an increased lateral length of 2500 meters will provide a 38% increase in
production (from the base case). A decrease in formation permeability by a factor of 10 would decrease
production by 67% from the base case. Increased lateral length in a low permeability scenario would
provide a 46% increase in production, nevertheless a low 15 year cumulative production of 98324 MCM.
