Why BlackRock?

  • We deliver hands-on, fit-for-purpose products that directly address your practical needs
  • We have a strong focus on data integration
  • YOUR COMPANY will benefit from our substantial experience acquired in the most diverse geological settings world-wide

BlackRock Resources GmbH is a hands-on integrated geoscience consultancy that provides practical expertise to E&P companies, geothermal enterprises and their investors. Our goal is to supply our clients with independent technical advice and fit-for-purpose products to identify sweet-spots, reduce reservoir uncertainties and to maximize production and/ or reserves.

Our team consists of some of the most seasoned and experienced geoscientists, reservoir/ production engineers and technical specialists available in the industry today. As a team, we can fall back on more than 150 years of collective practical experience that has been obtained in some of the most diverse geological settings worldwide.

One of BlackRock’s main areas of expertise is focused on borehole image logs (QC, ‘repair’ and interpretation) and on the integration of the image data with drilling parameters, ‘static’ geological data, such as core, seismic and outcrops and ‘dynamic’ data, such as production logs and well test data. We have been analyzing and interpreting image logs since they first came on the market with some of our team members even involved in the development of the early processing and analysis software. Recently, we have successfully transferred our petroleum subsurface characterization to the characterization of geothermal reservoirs and here in particular fractured geothermal systems.

Complementing the above, we provide comprehensive flow heterogeneity (network) analysis based on feature recognition (e.g. from borehole images, conventional OH logs, core) all the way to flow simulation on a reservoir scale. We build fit-for-purpose 3D geo-models, including seismic interpretation and we provide comprehensive reservoir/ production engineering services (e.g. production log analysis, pressure transient analysis). BlackRock’s core strength is the integration of these diverse data sets into one comprehensive subsurface model that is fit-for-purpose and that addresses the practical needs of our clients.

Drawing on our extensive industry experience, we also offer technical assistance with data room visits and rapid asset evaluation.
