SLB to Deploy Digital Field Development Planning for Crescent Petroleum

Crescent Petroleum has contracted SLB for a three-year deal to deploy digital field development planning, marking the first commercial use of SLB's FDPlan solution in the Middle East and North Africa. The agreement builds on Crescent's existing use of SLB's Delfi digital platform, which has already reduced reservoir simulation times and increased efficiency. FDPlan integrates subsurface, wells, facilities, production, cost, and economics workflows to support informed investment decisions.
