While America as a whole is undergoing a ‘shale oil boom’, the
question that remains is “what do operators need to do to make it
happen in California?”
The Department Of Energy has estimated that the Monterey shale
contains 15 billion barrels of oil - more than the Bakken and Eagle
Ford shales collectively. This, combined with a mean of 6.5 billion
barrels in San Joaquin fields such as the Kern River, Elk Hills,
Midway-Sunset and Belridge South and around 1 million barrels
in the Santa Maria oil field, California literally has the potential to
become the most prolific oil resource within the US.
To fully exploit the Monterey and surrounding unconventional
resources within California, the structural and lithological
complexity of shale and diatomite reservoirs needs to be further
understood to enable the identification of the stimulation
technologies that will maximize oil recovery - whether it be acid
fracturing, hydraulic fracturing or steam injection.
The Tight Oil Reservoirs California 2014 Congress is the only
EP led congress with a specific focus on optimizing recovery
in unconventional reservoirs within California. Leading EP
companies from the Monterey, Kreyenhagen and wider
San Joaquin, Santa Maria and LA Basins will showcase
optimized logging suites and seismic technologies to obtain key
petrophysical, geomechanical and lithological data of California’s
sediments, to finally be able to commercially exploit shale and
increase return on investment within diatomite.
Considering the sensitive nature of the current regulatory
environment, strategies for complying with SB4 and AB32 and
expediting hydraulic fracturing and steam injection permit
approvals, will be also examined. Finally, speakers will discuss
case studies on how to source, transport and recycle water to
ensure compliance with state regulations, whilst minimizing
operational costs within California.

  • 2. Need to generate new sales leads, launch a new product, engage key decision makers, build new future business relationships in key markets, or simply educate the industry about a new product? Then you need to exhibit at the Tight Oil Reservoirs California 2014 Congress. Our busy exhibit area is an integral part of the congress and is of genuine practical value to delegates, who are looking for new solutions and technologies. Exhibiting at the congress will help you position yourself as a market leader and centre of excellence to the key decision makers in the industry. For further information, please contact: info@american-business-conferences.com or + (1) 800 721 3915 www.tight-oil-monterey-california-2014.com (1) 800 721 3915 info@american-business-conferences.com While America as a whole is undergoing a ‘shale oil boom’, the question that remains is “what do operators need to do to make it happen in California?” The Department Of Energy has estimated that the Monterey shale contains 15 billion barrels of oil - more than the Bakken and Eagle Ford shales collectively. This, combined with a mean of 6.5 billion barrels in San Joaquin fields such as the Kern River, Elk Hills, Midway-Sunset and Belridge South and around 1 million barrels in the Santa Maria oil field, California literally has the potential to become the most prolific oil resource within the US. To fully exploit the Monterey and surrounding unconventional resources within California, the structural and lithological complexity of shale and diatomite reservoirs needs to be further understood to enable the identification of the stimulation technologies that will maximize oil recovery - whether it be acid fracturing, hydraulic fracturing or steam injection. The Tight Oil Reservoirs California 2014 Congress is the only EP led congress with a specific focus on optimizing recovery in unconventional reservoirs within California. Leading EP companies from the Monterey, Kreyenhagen and wider San Joaquin, Santa Maria and LA Basins will showcase optimized logging suites and seismic technologies to obtain key petrophysical, geomechanical and lithological data of California’s sediments, to finally be able to commercially exploit shale and increase return on investment within diatomite. Considering the sensitive nature of the current regulatory environment, strategies for complying with SB4 and AB32 and expediting hydraulic fracturing and steam injection permit approvals, will be also examined. Finally, speakers will discuss case studies on how to source, transport and recycle water to ensure compliance with state regulations, whilst minimizing operational costs within California.
