Oslo-based Applied Petroleum Technology has secured a contract with UK North Sea operator Chrysaor.
Under the contract of an undisclosed fee, APT will provide geochemical and petroleum systems analyses at the Armada hub facility and exploration around the Greater Lomond area on the UK continental shelf.
At the Armada Hub facility, a scoping and feasibility study for the use of geochemical production allocation is underway, APT said Tuesday.
In the same asset, APT is conducting a geochemical analysis of recently drilled well where a potentially new reservoir system is under evaluation.
APT is also carrying out integrated petroleum system analysis and basin modeling to support Chrysaor’s assessment of the exploration potential in the Central North Sea.
Julian Moore, head of APT’s UK operation said: "We work with Chrysaor to apply geochemical methods and technology in a focused way to provide insight to the subsurface to directly assist evaluations and decision making at a relatively low cost.
"Currently, the work we are involved with spans from exploration to appraisal to development, demonstrating the wide range of problems geochemical technologies can be applied to.”
APT’s UK operation will manage the project. Geochemical analyses will be conducted out of the APT's specialized laboratory in Conwy, Wales.
