Case Study: Agiba Petroleum improves field recovery and cuts water injection costs with SLB ESP completion solution

Flexible Completion with ESP Improves Recovery and Water Injection Project Cost in Egypt

SLB worked with Agiba Petroleum in Egypt to address reservoir depletion and the need for low-cost water injection to support field recovery. The challenge was that the existing water source capacity was not enough to feed a new injector well, and drilling another source well would have been expensive.

SLB implemented a flexible completion solution using an ESP, a reversed Y-tool and bypass system, Phoenix xt150 high-temperature ESP monitoring, and Lift IQ production life cycle management service to boost pressure and redirect dumpflood water for reinjection. The system increased reservoir pressure, improved production from target wells by nearly 5,650 bbl/d, and saved Agiba Petroleum USD 2.65 million versus drilling a new source well.
