Details: Geochemical Allocation of Commingled Oil Production We have made significant improvements to the previously published methods for geochemical allocation of commingled oil production and/or commingled gas production. This new method has allowed allocation of commingled production from wells at less than 2-5% of the cost of production logging. Four case studies are shown here. In the first two studies, commingling of the wells was subject to approval of the Alaska Oil and Gas... [More Info]
