| • The Maersk Oil Research & Technology Centre is Maersk Oil’s first global research and technology centre tasked with developing cutting-edge applications for the Al Shaheen field while supporting Qatar’s 2030 Vision of a knowledge-based future. The $100 million USD centre, dubbed the MO-RTC, is located at the Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP), which is supported by other industrial majors including oil companies. The MO-RTC will focus on research that will create practical and applicable solutions to clearly-defined problems in oil and gas production.
• The MO-RTC will divide its work into four streams – developing applications for its renowned long horizontal wells to improve oil recovery, defining and investigating new Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods, Providing Digital Rock Physics technical expertise and researching Qatar’s marine ecosystem to help reduce Maersk Oil’s environmental footprint. The MO-RTC has already begun work, initiating field trials of acoustic sensing in wells with fibre optical cables, electron microscopy on cuttings while drilling and of a patented technology for measuring water injection profiles in horizontal wells. In fact, the team has already notched up eight patents so far. The centre has also already teamed up with a number of international and local partners, including the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) to study improved oil recovery and Texas A&M University Qatar on EOR-related topics.
