Call
Detailed Call Description
The projects will have to include:
Technical and economic validation is expected of the innovative exploration and production approaches and tools and methods which are expected to increase the precision for geologically based resource assessment, the target definition of exploratory drilling, and to improve the characterisation and prediction of reservoir geology and long-term reservoir performance. Moving beyond the state of the art by demonstrating the application of new tools, developing new approaches and taking advantage of improved software and computing power, the drilling success will be increased by 20% in 2030 and 50% in 2035 thereby reducing the exploration costs.
