Most geoscientists and reservoir engineers have full and detailed knowledge of a relatively small number of oil and gas fields. When evaluating prospects or new discoveries, formulating development plans, assessing reservoir management strategies or undertaking economic evaluations, oil and gas professionals initially draw on knowledge gained from the team’s experience and the company’s available data to help guide their decision-making which is often informal and inefficient. Analogues provide the opportunity to learn from local and global experience and generates more insightful and creative ideas, from which better decisions can be made. C&C Reservoirs was founded in mid-1990s to expand the experience of geoscientists and reservoir engineering professionals using insights and intelligence derived from global analogues. At its inception, the company had a vision to help the E&P companies improve their decision quality and drive value across the E&P lifecycle by leveraging knowledge from global hydrocarbon discoveries. This vision was shared by many major and large independent oil companies around the world who provided both funding and data on their fields. The technical team at C&C Reservoirs consists of seasoned geoscientists and reservoir engineers who have spent more than 25 years collecting, reviewing and synthesizing geological, reservoir engineering and production data on the world’s most important fields and reservoirs that covers every significant petroleum basin, play and reservoir type, as well as development and product challenge and IOR/EOR methods. These fields account for more than 70f global conventional recoverable reserves and, collectively, document both best practices and technical failures from global E&P activities of the past century. This research has laid the foundation for C&C Reservoirs ' position as the leading provider of analogue intelligence to the oil and gas industry. C&C Reservoirs ' clients include all the super-major energy companies, large national oil companies, government agencies and independent oil and gas companies. All use insights and intelligence derived from C&C Reservoirs ' global field and reservoir knowledge base as part of their quality assurance workflows and investment decision processes. C&C Reservoirs is headquartered in Reading, United Kingdom and has offices worldwide including Houston, United States, Hong Kong and Beijing, China.
