Reservoir Uncertainty and Development Strategy
Reservoir uncertainty is unavoidable in offshore concept screening. The real question is how much of that uncertainty space you can evaluate, and how quickly.
FLOCO® was built for exactly this. Engineers define a reservoir scenario and run it through an integrated techno-economic workflow, Wells, Subsea, Flow Assurance, Topside Facilities, Production Units, and Finance, with P10, P50, and P90 covered end to end. It's how concept-stage decisions get made when the goal is to move fast across a wide design space.
When a Petrel model is already part of the project, the FLOCO Petrel Integrator brings that simulation physics and production curves directly into the same workflow. The runs are organized as a structured VFP-based dataset, that covers the project's design space and then serves as the reservoir source that FLOCO draws from as facilities inputs vary downstream.
The screening environment becomes elastic: anchored to simulation physics, broad across the uncertainty envelope, and responsive to whatever concept the engineering team puts in front of it, without asking them to run a single additional case.
Subsurface and facilities, working from the same simulator-derived data. That is what integrated concept-phase decision making should look like.
