The TEAM that Escopeta Oil UA has put together – both in house as well as third party consulting and action groups – will be taking advantage of all that has been done in other unconventional systems.
And subsequently significantly reducing the time frame and learning curve that will be associated with Ukrainian unconventional shale reservoirs.

The development of unconventional shale reservoirs was a “bleeding edge” effort as industry shifted from well understood conventional reservoirs to the “new” shale reservoirs.

This process took time and the associated learning curve was gradual and jagged as to improvements and optimization. That will not be the case in the Ukraine.

From old soviet Ukrainian log - to modern US shale standard processed log
This expertise is rooted in petrophysical algorithms that are based on actual rock information. It allows us jointly with NuTech to most effectively evaluate any reservoir as to key parameters (including brittleness and frac barriers) and calculate a viable Gas in Place volume. All while using open hole logging information. Plus determine which proven shale plays are similar to their Ukrainian counterparts. The key to this approach is maximizing the understand of the shale reservoir so as to allow for optimum exploitation of Gas in Place reserves.
