The third tight gas workshop being held in Oman promises to bring relevant technical and industry challenges to discuss in an open forum with leading experts. Exploitation and development of tight gas reservoirs have seen new industry considerations, as sustainability and the use of digital technologies become relevant to future operations. At the same time, discussions will include long standing challenges such as reducing uncertainties in petrophysical and geomechanical models to difficulty breaking down deeper formations, as well as managing the gas with substantial water production.
