Rocky Mountain Oilfield Testing Center
The Rocky Mountain Oilfield Testing Center (RMOTC), outside of Casper, Wyoming, provides a test site for petroleum techniques and equipment both for the federal government and for private sector producers, service companies and equipment manufacturers.
RMOTC resides within the Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 3 (NPR-3), the Teapot Dome Oil Field. The field test site is a 10,000 acre operating oil field offering a full complement of associated facilities and equipment on-site. There are approximately 1,200 well bores and approximately 600 producing wells, in nine producing reservoirs ranging in depth from 500 ft. to 5000 ft. Existing producing wells, non-producing wells, or sites for drilling new wells are all available to field test partners.
Some of the testing opportunities include:
Exploration Reservoir characterization Non-invasive reservoir identification Seismic Geological modeling Geosteering
