What is Research? Who funds it? Who uses it? Mike Harr is 10

6 Mike Harr is 11 Technology Greek - "study of know-how Webster - a technical method of achieving a practical purpose Old Oil & Gas Professional - Research Older Oil & Gas Professional - Something someone else wants me to do that I can t do because I don t want to. Our Definition - Make Money with Know-How Disruptive Technology: The Internet Users Online Online Users In the U.S. Milions of Users (Nielson Internet Demographic Survey 1999) Year Mike Harr is 12

8 Mike Harr is 15 When Do You Need Technology Must Do What We Are Doing DIFFERENTLY When Do You Need Technology Must Do What We Are Doing DIFFERENTLY Must Do Something DIFFERENT - Like Someone Else in the Industry is Doing Homework, sharing best practices, training Mike Harr is 16

9 Mike Harr is 17 When Do You Need Technology Must Do What We Are Doing DIFFERENTLY Must Do Something DIFFERENT - Like Someone Else in the Industry is Doing Homework, sharing best practices, training Must Do Something VERY DIFFERENT - Like No One Else in the Industry is Doing Applied research, creativity, lateral thinking When Do You Need Technology Must Do What We Are Doing DIFFERENTLY Must Do Something DIFFERENT - Like Someone Else in the Industry is Doing Homework, sharing best practices, training Must Do Something VERY DIFFERENT - Like No One Else in the Industry is Doing Applied research, creativity, lateral thinking Must Do Something RADICALLY DIFFERENT - Like No One Else in the World is Doing True research Mike Harr is 18

10 Mike Harr is 19 When Do You Find Out You Need Technology During Project Stages Front End Loading Economics (risk mitigation) When Do You Find Out You Need Technology During Project Stages Front End Loading Economics (risk mitigation) When Change Occurs Competition gets better Prices Change (product or supplies, up or down) Nature (encounter what you didn t expect, expect what you didn t encounter - risk elimination) Emerging technology emerges Mike Harr is 20

11 Mike Harr is 21 Examples - Product Price Up Deepwater - dual activity drill ships Dual gradient drilling Intelligent completions High flow rate test and produce capabilities Examples - Product Price Down / Supply Prices Up Slim Riser Drilling Free Standing Risers Surface BOP Stacks Mike Harr is 22

12 Mike Harr is 23 Where Do You Get Technology At Home Training Next Door In house sharing of best practices Across the Street Industry sharing of best practices Around the World Applying technology from other industries or applications (creativity) Out of this world Research WHO BENEFITS FROM TECHNICAL INNOVATIONS? INNOVATOR Benefits by selling or licensing product Impacted by ability to protect idea Where do individual ideas get launched? COMPETITORS/COPIERS Benefits by doing something similar USERS Usually receives the most benefit by increasing production or lowering costs over time SUPPLIERS Benefit by capitalizing innovation Mike Harr is 24

13 Mike Harr is 25 Typical Improvement Economics Project Capex of $350 MM Development time 2 years 4 years to max production of 15,000 BOPD Improvement costs $3 MM initial investment in innovative improvement $500,000/yr increase in operating expense 15%improvement in cycle time and 5% reduction in CAPEX ROI from 67% to 82% NPV of innovation investment $32 MM WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 10 YEARS? WATER DEPTH DRILLING CAPABILITY SYNTHETIC DRILLING FLUIDS ADVANCES IN LOGGING WHILE DRILLING COILED TUBING DRILLING COMPLETIONS TECHNOLOGY INCREASED COMMUNICATIONS CAPABILITY INCREASED COMPUTING CAPACITY VISUALIZATION LINKS COST REDUCTIONS THROUGH PROJECT MANAGEMENT SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT Mike Harr is 26

14 Mike Harr is 27 WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN THE NEXT 10 YEARS? INCREASE IN COMPUTING CAPACITY INCREASE IN COMMUNICATIONS CAPABILITY??????? Dual gradient drilling Less casing strings Deeper water completions Smarter completions Reservoir management tools and techniques Look-ahead while drilling tools WHO IS INVESTING IN INNOVATION (RESEARCH)? MOST INDUSTRIES - 6% of Revenue Invested in Research TODAY S O&G INDUSTRY - 0.5% of Revenue Invested in Research Operators have reduced research Relying on suppliers Suppliers have to see quick return on investment How do we fund small innovators? Mike Harr is 28

15 Mike Harr is 29 BARRIERS Lack of Time (people or cycle time) Lack of Experts (attrition, industry changes) Lack of Training (loss of training focus) Not Knowing What You Don t Know Fear of Failure Fear of Success Fear of Sharing Price Cycles Lack of Research (Money) ENABLERS Training Industry Cooperation (Petroskills, Chevron/BP Drilling, NExT, etc.) Joint Research (JIP S) Successes Failures Industry cooperation Research money increase Beta testing cooperation Application of results Research partnerships?
