Rockfield Consultancy

Our consultancy team of experienced geologists and petroleum engineers have worked across the globe for over 25 years on numerous projects for blue chip clients utilising Rockfield’s Elfen software suite.

We focus on working closely with our clients throughout the project timeline and utilise our Elfen Software to promptly construct client specific models from available data, complete simulations with numerous sensitivities and interpret, critically assess the results to reduce technical uncertainty and risk in a disciplined manner.

Rockfield’s ethos is to continuously provide industries with solutions, pushing the boundaries of numerical modelling within each of its disciplines to evolve the technical capability of our Elfen software.

Projects are routinely built with Elfen training and technology transfer that will enable the client to replicate workflows utilised during the project and can span a duration from days to several months.

Consultancy project scope

Constructing dependable and stable geological models in 2D & 3D from basin to field to wellbore scale.
