oa HPHT, Low Permeability Fields in South Texas.......a legacy of development in a tough environment

For over fi fty years South Texas has been a part of Shell’s producing portfolio. These fi elds present a wide spectrum of technical, operational,<br>and regulatory challenges. Current fi elds are a mixture of legacy properties that Shell has operated since the1950’s, small but<br>lucrative new discoveries proximal to existing production, and fi elds acquired in an asset swap with Total in 2006. Well locations range<br>from rural ranchlands to in- town locations near a major airport.
