About

H-Tech. Petroleum Consulting Inc., an independent consulting firm offering technical guidance, counsel and training to oil & gas operators, service providers, regulators, state and other related entities directly or indirectly involved in exploitation with complex (horizontal) wells and all the advanced related technologies.

H-Tech. was formed in 1987 and lists as previous clients all the super major operators, many of the larger independent operators, many junior operators and state oil companies globally (KOC, ADNOC, PEMEX, CNOPC, CUPET, etc.), all the major service providers, legal firms, and the major training entities within the global industry (Petroskills, Schlumberger NExT, Colorado School of Mines, Midland College, AAPG, Enform/PITTS, Halliburton, Weatherford, Packers plus, etc).

In that 23-year span H-Tech. has provided advanced and tremendously diverse technical guidance globally, from training OIMs for Luke Oil’s deep water operations in the Caspian Sea to a CBM complex well project in central China, horizontal well design for Husky offshore on the White Rose project, to the first SAGD well commercial design for Suncor on the Fire Bag development in northern Alberta. The most recent clients include Husky in Calgary on a “CHOPS” project, The Three Affiliated Tribes of North Dakota on their Bakken and Three Forks assets in North Dakota, and with a U.S. entity on an Environmentally Friendly Drilling (EFD) project.

Activity over the last decade has focused primarily on complex well design, application and asset team cross-training, particularly in “resource plays”. Our primary pursuit lies with the ongoing development of the split-week 6 day asset team cross-program, Complex Well Core Competency ’11, and its mate, the 1-2 Day Executive Version. Full descriptions of these unique training products are found under the “Courses” tab.
