Software Pore, a program developed by Concremat in partnership with ESSS, reduces time and costs of petrophysical information in the pre-salt

Concremat Engenharia, occupying the first place in the Designers and Managers ranking of the largest engineering companies in Brazil, has developed a new type of digital analysis capable of reducing the time to collect petrophysical information on rocks found in the pre-salt layer. Energy Platform seeks partnership to build natural gas Hub in Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo

According to Concremat Engenharia, the phase of surveying projects is one of the main barriers to making them more agile and accurate. The study may also increase the oil and gas exploration schedule, with information that takes up to 6 months to be analyzed.

This is where Pore comes in, the software developed by Concremat in partnership with ESSS, capable of digitizing a sample and reducing the analysis time to a few days.

The software will help scientists and engineers estimate, from field samples, rock features that are crucial for reservoir modeling and simulation. Thus influencing the distribution of topological and petrophysical properties of the model, which are decisive for the behavior of fluid flow, well planning, production optimization.

“With Pore, we can verify sample characteristics and deliver information in less than a week. In the conventional method, this can take up to six months. This time is crucial for the exploration companies to make decisions, because with this petrophysical information, it is possible to know how much oil there is in the rock and the best way to extract it”, explains Leonardo Verbicaro, physicist and project coordinator Pore ​​on Concremat.

According to Lenardo, in addition to increasing the analysis speed, Pore reduces the cost and does not destroy the samples. It works like an image treatment. As it is digital, it allows you to photograph the rock and analyze it without having to destroy it. “In addition, we can create a database, integrating information from all the samples, and better understand the materials that make up a given oil field”, he concludes.

About Concremat

Concremat Engenharia e Tecnologia ranks first in the ranking of Designers and Managers of the largest companies of engineering in Brazil and is the 3rd most innovative engineering and infrastructure company in the country according to the Valor Inovação 2019 survey.
