Improving your
Development & Production Operations by Incorporating Best Practices
Ziff Energy's benchmarking process provides an actionable and effective tool, not
only by highlighting cost savings, but also by identifying 'best practices' from
those fields that have a particularly strong performance in a specific cost
area. Many of the Best Practices we have identified have broad technical
application. These practices have been gathered from a wide variety of
companies and address perennial operational issues such as:
Best Operating Practice Topics Previously Analyzed:
| Onshore: |
Artificial Lift Evaluation & Optimization, Power Management, Alliances, Field Operations, Corrosion Control,
Drilling/Completions, Frac Stimulation, Inland Water Transportation, Liquid Loading, Salt Water Disposal,

|
| Offshore: |
Staff Organization/Labor, Sub-Sea Operations & Transportation, Energy Management,
Surface Repair & Maintenance Programs
|
| Both: |
Field Level Operational Excellence, Well Servicing, Surface Facilities/Maintenance, Well & Facility Automation,

Artificial Lift Failure Rate Reduction, Production Optimization
|
Our highly experienced team collects practices information from operators
through field questionnaires, in-depth interviews, and field visits. Ziff Energy
focuses on best practices relevant to the 'high impact' areas where the client's
performance gaps have been identified via the cost and efficiency benchmarking
study.
Best Practices Workshops
To introduce our findings on Best Practices, Ziff Energy specialists conduct
workshops – multi-client or single client – focused on case histories on leading practices and successful key
operations related to specific challenge areas. Potential topics of discussion
may include: Optimizing Field Performance, Compression & Rotating Equipment, Field Automation, and Chemicals & Treating.
Clients always rate the workshops as highly valuable. Multi-client workshops provide unique opportunities for networking with industry peers.
