About us

Our vision is to become the world's leading, most trusted, and reliable company in the energy industry by being the partner of choice for outsourcing all subsurface resources management processes to all sizes of energy companies.

Strados mission is to shape the energy industry's future by creating unprecedented value and opportunity for substantial cost reductions and risk mitigation in capital investment and operational expenses of projects, including oil and gas, carbon sequestration, and geothermal energies.
We have designed a business model for outsourcing the knowledge and business processes for managing the subsurface resources to the upstream sector of the energy industry. Our strategy is to build and manage Virtual Integrated Subsurface Teams or VIST®. These teams operate based on a high-skilled distributed workforce, industry-leading software, cloud-based secure ecosystems, 4IR technologies, and OpEx-only budgets.
VIST® provides all the roles needed to build and manage tailored interdisciplinary subsurface teams for individual E&P company asset management organisations. It focuses on providing more technical professional services of the highest quality with less.
01
Knowledge

We have extensive practical application experience and business knowledge executing standardised geoscience, engineering, and operational processes.

02
Expertise

We carry out complex and tailored subsurface processes that demand advanced analytical, technical, and decisive judgment.

03
Innovation

We apply knowledge and deep subsurface characterisation, modelling, and prediction expertise for improved subsurface management processes.

Knowledge, Expertise, and Innovation are the principles defining how Strados serves up the energy industry. These principles set the road map to securing sustainable growth over time into becoming the leading company for outsourcing the geoscience and subsurface engineering processes to the energy industry.

Our name

Our company's name derives from its four core business management processes: Subsurface, E&P Transformation including Research and Analytics, Digitalisation, and Outsourcing Service.

Virtual Teams and Reservoir Engineering Services
Subsurface

We deploy interdisciplinary subsurface teams to readily conduct and timely deliver your integrated reservoir studies from experts with a proven track record of exploring and developing oil and gas projects worldwide.

Our streamlined processes enable the rapid achievement of your asset exploration and development goals. We provide access to the most experienced people, methodologies, and technologies available in the industry today for undertaking integrated reservoir characterisation, 3D modelling and simulation with uncertainty analysis, and probabilistic performance forecasting for production management, field development, and reserves assessment.

We leverage industry-leading software to interpret seismic data, perform petrophysical analysis of well log measurements, create geological interpretations, build reservoir models, generate simulation results, calculate volumes, and design strategies to maximise reservoir recovery. Our approach to subsurface is deep domain integration to shorter service life cycles, completing the reservoir analysis, modelling, and evaluations for your reservoir performance optimisation and field development planning in days, not months.

Transformation

We believe that for a step-change in the upstream sector of the energy industry, any digital transformation initiative must involve cultural, organisational, and operational changes. Therefore, our Transformation consultancy services help E&P companies develop strategies to reimagine conventional function-based subsurface managing units and transform them into fully process-based organisations capable of changing, adapting, and thriving in challenging conditions.

Furthermore, agile management principles are at the heart of our transformational strategies. They focus multidiscipline subsurface teams on driving continuous improvement by examining existing knowledge and business-work processes and leveraging long-term cultivated competencies to simplify and accelerate the path to providing value for decision-makers.

Research

Research is at the heart of what we do to deliver best-in-class services sustainably. Our passion is for helping decision-makers develop insights concerning the geological features controlling the potential business outcomes in oil and gas upstream projects.

Our approach to reducing subsurface uncertainty for more robust reservoir models and reliable performance forecasts is developing and implementing innovative methodologies to improve further the reconciliation and integration of data interpretation models from different subsurface disciplines. For instance, we have ongoing research studies on the impact of complex geological systems in pressure response behaviour and the reconciliation of seismic and well-test data interpretation models to improve the characterisation of large-scale geological features.

Analytics

We use upstream data analytics and enhanced visualisation methods to improve how subsurface disciplines collaborate to reconcile and integrate different interpretation data and models into the reservoir characterisation, 3D modelling, and forecasting processes.

We have access to third-party software solutions for applying advanced analytical data-driven workflows to predict behaviours in complex, heterogeneous, and multivariate hydrocarbon reservoir systems. That enables our subsurface professionals to manage Big Data and identify correlations, surface hidden relationships and dependencies in raw data and data generated by different data interpretation processes.

Digitalisation

Our digitalisation consultancy services help E&P companies formulate effective digital transformation strategies for implementing emerging cognitive technologies to create novel products, solutions, and services.

These strategies aim to advance interdisciplinary collaboration, drive workforce efficiencies, and enhance the performance of subsurface organisations by leveraging AI and ML automation, managing data sharing through open ecosystems, and applying data analytics.

In addition, we work with oil and gas asset management organisations at all stages in their cloud journey, from legacy data and application migration through multi-cloud ecosystem adoption, to best practices framework implementation for cloud financial management, operations, and security and compliance.

Outsourcing

Outside digitalisation, cash conservation is a more urgent than ever strategy that oil and gas companies need to pursue to endure the present and secure a position in a net-zero future. An obvious answer is converting fixed costs into variable costs through outsourcing or reducing capital investment without necessarily shrinking the business, yielding higher returns through a lighter, more agile balance sheet.

We have created a business model called VIST® for Virtual Integrated Subsurface Teams to outsource the knowledge and business processes for managing the subsurface hydrocarbon resources to the energy industry.

A VIST® team focuses on providing more technical services of the highest quality with less. It operates according to contracting legal considerations set out in an exclusive outsourcing agreement guaranteeing appropriate intellectual property rights management.

Services

We aim to serve the energy industry by enabling the upstream sector to change, adapt and thrive in challenging conditions caused by the price market volatility, the talent shortage, the digital transformation, and the 2050 net-zero ambition globally.

Our clients are presented with the unique possibility to contract out the entire subsurface business functions, involving the transfer of processes, assets such as interpretative data and knowledge, and possibly, people. As a result, we build solid organisational capabilities for our customers, identify competent business managers and professionals who possess the right project-delivery skills and team behaviours and display the relevant business-change knowledge and expertise to deliver exceptional results.

Our team provides highly customised outsourcing services and adheres to the universal professional mission to deliver outstanding client service; while offering fulfilling, rewarding careers and professional satisfaction for our employees and achieving financial success for sustainable growth.

Strados International Limited is a start-up subsurface company that renders world-class technical services to the energy industry. We provide fully integrated geosciences and subsurface engineering professional services in reservoir evaluation, geological modelling, and fluid-flow simulation for performance prediction, production optimisation, and field development for upstream projects.
