Core Insights from Operators of Offshore Newfoundland

Great sessions reviewing core data from the ExxonMobil Hibernia field, Cenovus' Whiterose field, and Equinor on the Bay du Nord field.

Insights shared from geoscience experts with hands-on explanation of nuances in core from key wells. Sharing knowledge and working together makes all E&P companies stronger.

Canada Newfoundland Offshore Energy Regulator Core Storage Facility

Washed and unwashed cuttings, core slabs, sidewall cores, thin sections, and a new database - if you are looking for offshore Newfoundland core data - the CNLOER probably has it, and is willing to work with E&P companies to increase industry knowledge.

Canada Newfoundland Offshore Energy Regulator Oil Sample Storage Facility

Schooner Energy will innovate to make an activity more effective, but we also use tried and true methods when we can - great to see the CNLOER take a practical approach to preserving oil samples by freezing them in mason jars - no need to get over complicated if the tool is doing the job.

Seismic Revelations Workshop

When it comes to geoscience, one of the best ways to get an active discussion going is to put interpreters from industry, academia, and government together and have them work together to interpret some 3D seismic lines - had a great team and was an animated session.
