Gulf of Mexico Pressure Database (US)
IHS Gulf of Mexico Pressure Database (US) contains digital pressure test data on more than 1,300 wells in the Gulf of Mexico, ensuring safe and cost-effective drilling operations.
-
Gulf of Mexico Pressure Database (US) contains pressure test data on over 1,300 wells in the Gulf of Mexico. Subsurface data is essential for any company engaged in deepwater exploration for two reasons: safety and cost. Identification of over-pressured formations and fracture gradients can help prevent human injury - even loss of life - and equipment drilling hazards. At the same time, given an estimated 90 percent of drilling downtime in the Gulf of Mexico stems from unpredicted formation pressure. This data enables companies to craft optimal well designs and avoid expensive downtime.
